French composer and organist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nicolas Séjan (17 March 1745[1] – 16 March 1819[1]) was a French composer and organist, from a family allied to the Forqueray.
Born in Paris, Séjan was one of the best organists of his time. He was co-titular of the organ of Notre-Dame de Paris and many other Parisian churches.[2] He was appointed to the Chapelle Royale in 1789. He lost his charges during the French Revolution, but later recovered some of them.
He left a few works for the harpsichord and the pianoforte as well as the organ.
Nicolas Séjan was Louis-Nicolas Séjan's father, his successor at the church of Saint-Sulpice.
He died in Paris on 16 March 1819 and was buried at Montmartre Cemetery.[3]
