Biography

Pierre Bachelet, a popular singer (his song "Les Corons" became a tremendous hit in France), always had a special connection with the world of cinema. Wasn't he a graduate of the Rue de Vaugirard Film School? His becoming a film music composer soon appeared as the ideal link between his two passions. That is how Pierre Bachelet lent his talent to successful (either commercial or artistic) films such as Emmanuelle (1974), Jean-Jacques Annaud's La victoire en chantant (1976) and Coup de tête (1979), Patrice Leconte's Les bronzés font du ski (1979) or Jean Becker's Les enfants du marais (1999). He also wrote the score of a few commercials and TV Films. Pierre Bachelet died prematurely at the age of 60.
