Marquise Hélène de Montgeroult born Hélène Antoinette Marie de Nervo was a French composer and pianist. Recognised as one of the best fortepiano performers and improvisers of her time, and a published composer, de Montgeroult adapted to the rapid development of her instrument by makers such as Érard. She is considered by her biographer Jérôme Dorival as a bridge between classicism and romanticism. He describes her as "the missing link between Mozart and Chopin".
