Henry Myerscough (1927 in Islington, London – 2007[1]) was a British violist.

In addition to solo work and teaching, he formed the Fidelio Quartet with his brother, the violinist Clarence Myerscough, and performed for many years as a session musician, including The Beatles' "White" Album and Quatermass.

He played a viola by luthier Gasparo da Salò.[2]

His niece is Seona Myerscough, whose dancing inadvertently provided the name for the electronic duo Seona Dancing, an act whose members were fellow students Bill Macrae and Ricky Gervais.
