Roar Engelberg (born 26 July 1964 in Hamar, Norway) is the first international Norwegian artist on Panpipes, known for his long lasting and fertile cooperation with Stein-Erik Olsen.
Engelberg got interested in Panpipes when he 12-year-old heard the Romanian panpipe player Georghe Zamfir on the radio. He then taught himself to play the instrument, and later studied in Hilversum with Nicolai Pirvu (1985–88). After his debut in London 1986, he toured with Iver Kleive and Stein-Erik Olsen in Norway and around the World.
He received the 2007 award "Meritul Cultural în gradul de Cavaler" of the Romanian state for his many years of effort for the music of Romania.
