Jacques-Nicolas Lemmens (1823 - 1881)
Belgique

Jacques-Nicolas (Jaak-Nicolaas) Lemmens (Zoele-Parwijs, near Westerlo, Belgium, January 3, 1823 - Zemst, near Mechelen, Belgium, January 30, 1881) was an organist and composer for his instrument.

He studied with François-Joseph Fétis, who wanted to make him into a musician capable of renewing the organ-player's art in Belgium. Fétis sent him to Adolf Hesse in Breslau to learn Johann Sebastian Bach's tradition.

In 1847, Lemmens won the prestigious Prix de Rome with his Le roi Lear ("King Lear'). One year later he published his first work for organ Dix improvisations dans le style sévère et chantant ('Ten improvisations in a strict and singing style'). In March 1849 he was appointed organ teacher at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels aged 26, and he trained young French talents, including Alexandre Guilmant and Charles-Marie Widor.

In 1852 he gave organ recitals in Saint Vincent de Paul, La Madeleine and Saint Eustache churches in Paris, where he stunned audiences. Particularly notable was his brilliant pedal-playing, which owed a good deal to his studies of Bach's music (at the time Bach's organ works were not at all well known in France).

In 1857 he married the English soprano Helen Sherrington (1834-1906), who in the following decade emerged as a leading English concert and operatic singer.
