Gene Gutchë (born Romeo Maximilian Eugene Ludwig Gutschë; 3 July 1907, Berlin – 15 November 2000, White Bear Lake, Minnesota) was a German composer active primarily in America.
Gutchë earned degrees in business and economics but also studied piano with Ferruccio Busoni.
In the 1950s he attended graduate school in music at the University of Minnesota and the University of Iowa, studying under Philip Greeley Clapp and settling in Minneapolis.
While much of his work is neo-Romantic, he also experimented with polytonality, serialism, and microtones.
Gutchë also published two books, Music of the People (1968) and Come Prima (1970).
