French music publisher (b. 1837; d. 1903).

The founder of a music publishing firm in [[Paris]], in 1885 Mackar purchased from [[Jurgenson]] the rights to publish Tchaikovsky's works in France and Belgium.

In 1886 Mackar commissioned Tchaikovsky to write the piano piece ''[[Dumka]]'' (TH 145), originally known as ''Rhapsody''.
