Zoltán Jeney (b. Szolnok, Hungary, March 4, 1943) is a Hungarian composer.
He studied composition with Ferenc Farkas at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music in Budapest (1961-66) and pursued postgraduate studies with Goffredo Petrassi at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome (1967-68).
In the 1970s Jeney began composing music in the minimal style, and his works are often characterized by an extremely spare and static quality.
