Georg Reutter (3 November 1656 – 29 August 1738) was an Austrian organist, theorbo player, and composer.
Between 1696 and 1703 Reutter was employed in the Viennese court chapel as continuo player on the theorbo.
The principal Kapellmeister, Antonio Draghi, recommended him to the emperor as ‘a virtuoso player able to play many instruments’.
He was married three times and was the father of 15 children, of whom two became musicians (Karl and the younger Georg).
He passed on the position of cathedral organist to his son Georg Reutter II in 1720.
