Ignacio Rosado (b. 2007) is an American composer of contemporary classical music and music for screen media.

He composes to elicit thought and feeling in audiences while considering aspects of the human condition through the art of music composition. His music is imbued with a signature forward momentum and explores tonal harmony (and extensions of it via microtonality) through contemporary timbre and texture, often being described as evocative, optimistic or exhilarating. His works are stimulating for a wide range of listeners. He embraces experimentation and encourages spontaneity in his music through devices that allow musicians creative freedom in performance.

Ignacio was recently named a 2025 YoungArts Winner with Distinction and was the winner of Sing for Hope’s 2023 HandaHarmony Song Contest for his (music) and collaborator Ava Briglia’s (lyrics) song “United”, which saw performances at the United Nations’ High-Level Political Forum and General Assembly of that year. His music has been recorded and performed by members of The Harlem Chamber Players, New York Youth Symphony, Nu Deco Ensemble, Budapest Symphony Orchestra, and in venues such as National Sawdust, Steinway Hall (NY) and the New World Center.
