Aubert Lemeland (19 December 1932 – 15 November 2010) was a French composer.
Life
Born in La Haye-du-Puits, after his studies in piano and cello classes in Cherbourg, then in Paris - where he moved in 1948 - and interrupted by a long illness, Lemeland produced his first works in the mid-1960s. Lemeland died in Paris at the age of 77. He is buried at Père Lachaise Cemetery (22nd division).
