Bert Rache (1876–1928) born Joseph Bernard Rash, was an Australian composer, music director, conductor, pianist, company leader.

Bert Rache grew up in Lismore, New South Wales, and began his career as a musician in the late 1890s. After touring as George Rignold's orchestra leader, he was employed as a pianist with Harry Rickards in 1903, continuing this association for many years. His early career also included work with Perth's Palace Gardens (1904–06) and King's Theatre (circa 1909). Rache was in high demand as a music director, composer, and arranger throughout the 1910s and 1920s, and he toured with his own troupes at various times, including the Imperial Orchestra and Th' Drolls.
