Saad Haddad (born September 1, 1992) is an American contemporary classical composer of orchestral, chamber, vocal, and electroacoustic music. His work explores the disparate qualities inherent in Western art music and Middle Eastern musical tradition by transferring the performance techniques of traditional Arab instruments to Western symphonic instruments, while extending their capabilities through the advancement of technology. He currently lives in New York City.
