Javād Ma'roufi (Persian: جواد معروفی) (b. 1912 — d. December 7, 1993, Tehran, Iran), was a celebrated ethnic Persian (Iranian) composer and pianist. He was one of the first musicians who chose to perform Persian music on the piano. Javād Ma'roufi was born in Tehran to the musician father Musā Ma'roufi and mother Ozrā Ma'roufi who both were distinguished pupils of Darvish Khan, a renowned music master of the time in Iran. Javād Ma'roufi lost his mother at young age, and consequently grew up in his paternal family.
