Camilla de Rossi (fl. 1670–1710) was an Italian composer known for her oratorios composed in Vienna during the early 1700s. She is recognized for having the most surviving works of any female composer from Northern Italy and Austria during the Baroque period. Her compositions reflect the style of the time, characterized by intricate vocal lines and emotional depth.

Several of De Rossi's oratorios were composed for performance at the Vienna court. Her legacy is notable for the rarity of women composing during the Baroque era, a time when most women composers were marginalized
