History
It was in 1772 that Antoine-Marcel Lemoine, composer, violinist and music teacher, founded a music publishing house at 556, rue de l'Echelle-Honoré in Paris. From the opening of his business which bears the sign "à l'Espérance", success quickly smiles on the young publisher thanks to the connections he has in the musical world. In particular, in 1810 he published the Messe Solennelle with orchestra, composed by Méhul for the coronation of Napoleon 1st. It was his youngest son, Jean-Henry Lemoine, known as Henry Lemoine, who took over his succession in 1816. Henry Lemoine was one of the most famous piano teachers in Paris because he was the first in France to have organized collective music in order to stimulate his students. Under his direction, the publishing house, already frequented by famous artists of the time, became one of the most important in the capital. Publisher of works by Chopin, Henry Lemoine enriched his catalog with the publication in 1844 of the famous Treatise on orchestration by Berlioz. Henry Lemoine also wrote for his students a method and piano studies still used today. Then he publishes in collaboration with Carulli a solfège which will constitute the foundation of the Solfège des Solfèges. The official website presents a history of more than two centuries and states that the current catalog is concrete testimony to its vitality, in tune with our times.
