Mateo Albéniz, also known as Mateo Antonio Pérez de Albéniz (1755 - 23 June 1831) - no relation to the better-known composer Isaac Albéniz - was a Spanish composer and priest.

He held a post as Maestro de Capilla in San Sebastián and in Logroño from 1800 to 1829.

Albéniz wrote chiefly for the harpsichord and fortepiano. The only work of his which has any relevance today is the Sonata in D major, of which a popular transcription for guitar has been made.
