dbo:abstract | John Lemmoné (* 22. Juni 1861 in Ballarat, Victoria; † 16. August 1949 in Darlinghurst, Sydney, New South Wales) war ein australischer Flötist, Komponist und Musikmanager. Lemmoné, der Sohn eines griechischen Einwanderers, spielte bereits als Kind Flöte. 1874 kam er mit seiner Familie nach Melbourne, wo er Flötist in William Saurin Lysters Royal Italian Opera Company wurde. In Adelaide trat er mit dem Theatre Royal Orchestra auf, und bei einem Benefizkonzert 1884 in Melbourne zu Gunsten des Komponisten Carl Gottlieb Elsässer, der einen Schlaganfall erlitten hatte, lernte er die Sängerin Nellie Melba kennen. Von 1887 bis 1889 unternahm er Konzertreisen durch Australien und Asien mit der Sopranistin Amy Sherwin. Es folgten Konzertreisen mit den Sängern Janet Monach Patey, Allan James Foley und Charles Santley und dem Geiger Pablo de Sarasate. Bei einem Besuch in London 1894 wurde er von Nellie Melba gefördert, die ihn zu ihren Soireen einlud.
