Harald Sæther (born 9 May 1946) is a Norwegian composer with a diploma (MA) from Grieg Academy (2008) .

Sæther is basically a self-taught musician from the early 1960s, with guitar - later electric bass - as his main instrument.

After 25 years as a musician and music teacher, in 2001 he was badly injured in a serious traffic accident and had to interrupt his career.

This led him to The Grieg Academy in Bergen, where he earned a master's degree (MA) in composition in 2008, with Morten Eide Pedersen as his supervisor.

Sæther is a full-time free-lance composer and has his edited works deposited with MIC[8] (Music Information Centre in Norway).
