Cornell 1964 is a live album by jazz bassist and composer Charles Mingus, featuring multi-instrumentalist Eric Dolphy. It was recorded at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, on March 18, 1964.

The recordings of this concert were thought to be lost for many years, until they were re-discovered by Mingus' widow Sue, and were subsequently released for the first time in 2007 on the Blue Note label, initially as a 2-CD set.
