Laurent Menager
Laurent Menager (1835–1902) was a Luxembourg composer, choirmaster, organist and conductor who is often referred to as Luxembourg's national composer. He founded the national choral association ''Sang a Klang'' (1857) and composed many songs, orchestral music and operettas as well as music for brass bands and the theatre.〔"Menager, Laurent / Lorenz", ''Luxemburger Lexikon'', Editions Guy Bindsfeld, Luxembourg, 2006. 〕
==Biography==
The son of a baker, Menager was born on 10 January 1835 in the Pfaffenthal quarter of Luxembourg City. He attended the Luxembourg Athenée before continuing his studies with Professor Hiller at the Academy of Music in Cologne. Employed for no less than 46 years by the municipality of Luxembourg, he was a professor at the Luxembourg Music School. He also taught music and singing at the Athenée and at the teachers training school and directed several choral societies. He was a friend of the poets Dicks and Lentz, collaborating with them on several compositions.〔(Garry Little, "Luxembourg Stamps: 1950-1955" ). Retrieved 6 January 2011.〕 His compositions covered choral works, symphonies, operettas, chamber music and music for military bands. Of particular interest is his church music. His ''Pie Jesu'' and ''Ihr lieben Vöglein'' are among his most masterly compositions.〔("Laurent Menager zum 150. Geburtstag" ), ''Ons stad'' No 19, 1985. Retrieved 6 January 2011.〕
When Menager died on 7 February 1902, he had become so popular that he was mourned by the entire nation. Over 6,000 people, including representatives of 45 societies, attended his funeral.〔(Gary Little, "A Philatelic Tour of the ''Ville Basse'' of Luxembourg City" ), ''Castellum,'' Vol. 13, No. 1, June 2009.
