Zbigniew Drzewiecki (Polish pronunciation: [ˈzbiɡɲɛv dʐɛˈvjɛt͡skʲi]; 8 April 1890 – 11 April 1971) was a Polish pianist who was for most of his life a teacher of pianists. He was especially associated with the interpretation of Frédéric Chopin's works. His pupils include several famous pianists of the 20th century, and his influence was therefore very pervasive.
