Johan Kvandal (né Johansen; 8 September 1919 – 16 February 1999) was a Norwegian composer. He was born in Kristiania to David Monrad Johansen and Amunda Holmsen, with the family later moving to Bærum where Kvandal also died. Among his compostitions are Norsk ouverture from 1951, Skipper Worse-suite for a television drama series from 1968, Norske stevtoner from 1974, and Balladen om Heming unge from 1984. His opera Mysterier, with libretto based on Hamsun's novel, was staged at Den Norske Opera in 1994.[1][2][3]

He was married twice, first to Maria Teresia Unterrainer (from 1951), and from 1976 to Lilleba Lund.[1]
