Ma Shui-long (Chinese: 馬水龍; 17 July 1939 – 2 May 2015) was a Taiwanese composer, whose work is known for blending Western instrumentation with Asian pentatonic melodies. He was born in Keelung, Taiwan. Bernard Holland once praised him for "letting his instruments speak in a European voice but with an Asian mind." Among his best-known works are Rainy Harbor Sketch and Bamboo Flute Concerto. He is the first Taiwanese composer to have had his work performed at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. He died at the age of 75 on 2 May 2015.
