Jean-Pierre Emile Boeres (1890–1944) was a Luxembourg composer, organist and choir master. Born on 13 November 1890 in Luxembourg City, he wrote operettas and musical comedies in Luxembourgish. In 1934, he founded the ''Wiener Operette'' and the ''Lëtzebuerger Musekerverband''. He also contributed to the ''Lëtzebuerger Revue''.〔"Boeres, Emile (Jean-Pierre)", ''Luxemburger Lexikon'', Editions Guy Binsfeld, Luxembourg, 2006. 〕 During the German occupation, the Théâtre des Capucins put on operas, ballets and plays in German but the German authorities were very wary of productions in Luxembourgish which were considered anti-German. On 18 November 1940, Boeres' operetta ''Wann d'Blieder falen'' (When the leaves fall) enjoyed a huge success as the audience sought to show its support for a free Luxembourg by attending a performance in the Luxembourg language.〔("Theatre in Luxembourg" ), ''Information and Press Service of the Luxembourg Government''.
