Jan Van der Roost (Duffel, 1956) is a Belgian composer. Educated at the Lemmensinstituut in Leuven, he is currently a professor there and a guest professor at the Shobi Institute of Music, Tokyo and the Nagoya University of Arts.

Van der Roost has composed over 90 works; most are for wind orchestras like brass band, fanfare and wind band, but some are for orchestra or choir. He has also dabbled in composing various pieces in the style of late 17th- to early 18th-century dance music, and is often cited by Tom Collier and Tom Slabaugh in their lectures as a prime example of music transformation.
