Jenny Hettne (b. 1977, Gothenburg) is a Swedish composer based in Stockholm. She studied composition at the University of Gothenburg, where she earned her master’s degree in 2008, as well as at Gotlands Tonsättarskola and the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler in Berlin. Her teachers have included Henrik Strindberg, Ole Lützow-Holm, Jörg Mainka, and Bent Sørensen.

Hettne’s music is characterized by detailed sound exploration and close collaboration with performers. She composes for both orchestras and smaller ensembles, often blending acoustic and electronic elements to create rich, nuanced soundscapes where timbre and color are central.

Her works have been performed internationally at various festivals and by ensembles and soloists such as the Malmö Symphony Orchestra, Norrbotten NEO, Gageego!, Ensemble MA!, Caput, Duo Harpverk, Ensemble DissonArt, The Griffyn Ensemble, and artists including Karin Hellqvist, Jonny Axelsson, and Pauline Kim Harris.
