László Melis (Budapest, Hungary, 14 August 1953 – 12 February 2018) was a Hungarian composer and violinist. He composed primarily in the minimal style and his compositions are often characterized by a propulsive, bouncy quality.

Melis has composed music for film, winning the Award for Best Music for his work in the animated pieces, A szél ("The Wind") and Gyurmatek ("Clay Play") at the 2nd Kecskemét Animation Film Festival. He composed the score for the award-winning film Son of Saul. He has also worked extensively in theater, creating incidental music for theatrical productions.
