Nanna Magdalene Liebmann, née Lehmann, (September 27, 1849 – May 11, 1935) was a Danish, music educator, music critic, concert promoter and composer.

Early life

Nanna Lehmann was one of nine children born to a socially active family; her brother Carl Lehmann became a politician, another brother Edvard Lehmann became a religious historian, her sister Signe Lehmann also became a musician, and her uncle was the politician Orla Lehmann. She was a cousin of the literary critic and women's suffrage advocate Margrethe Vullum.
