Cox, David [Sir Henry Joseph Wood CH (3 March 1869 - 19 August 1944) was an English conductor best known for his association with London's annual series of promenade concerts, known as the Proms.

After his death, the concerts were officially renamed in his honour as the 'Henry Wood Promenade Concerts', although they continued to be generally referred to as 'the Proms'].
