Emilie Augusta Kristina Hammarskjöld née Holmberg (May 6, 1821 – March 26, 1854) was a Swedish composer and musician.

[1] She was likely the first woman artist from Sweden to have toured in the United States, prior to Jenny Lind.

She wrote her own compositions, but also created music for songs written by other Swedish authors such as Euphrosyne, Böttiger, Dahlgren, Atterbom, Franzén, Mellin, and Runeberg.

[7] Upon her return to Sweden in 1844, she married Peder Hjalmar Hammarskjöld (1817–1861), estate-owner of the Skultuna mässingsbruk brass foundry.

The success she achieved both as a singer and a pianist made it possible for her to tour the great cities of North America during the following years.

She was made the offer of becoming an organist at the St Peter Cathedral in Charleston, South Carolina, which she accepted.
