"Richard Dean "Dick" Grove" was an American musician, composer, Arrangement/arranger and award-winning music educator. He performed with Alvino Rey, and worked with Paul Horn (musician)/Paul Horn, Buddy Rich, and Nancy Wilson (jazz singer)/Nancy Wilson.

Grove was very active in the Jazz education field. He started teaching in 1958 at Westlake College of Music. At the time, the school had a strong focus on the Schillinger System, which had also served as a basis for the first curricula at Berklee School of Music (which had originally been called Schillinger House of Music). In his Composing&Arranging Program, he mentions that he studied the Schillinger System for 9 years.

Grove is perhaps best known for establishing the Dick Grove School of Music in Los Angeles in 1973. After the Grove School of Music closed in 1991, he established the Grove School Without Walls, a distance learning school where he taught Musicianship and Modern Harmony, Musical composition/Composing and Arranging, and Jazz Keyboard via a series of books and accompanying videos/DVDs.
