Harry Allouche is a French composer, pianist, and music producer whose work seamlessly blends diverse musical elements from classical to popular influences. He aims to create innovative soundscapes using experimental techniques and orchestral colors.
His passion for music and love of cinema led him to explore the connections between sound, image, and narration, nourishing his cinephilia. Since 2017, he has been performing as a silent film pianist at venues such as the Cinémathèque Française and the Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation in Paris.
In 2024, Harry Allouche wrote the score for César Acevedo's film Horizonte, which is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. In 2022, he composed the original music for the film Los Colonos (The Settlers), directed by Felipe Gálvez. The film made its debut in the Un Certain Regard selection at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and received the FIPRESCI award. It has since been selected to represent Chile at the 2024 Oscars. Through this creative collaboration with Gálvez, he experimented with textures and alternative sound capture methods to enrich his orchestral composition. He has composed and conducted various scores for films, including the Arte documentary Cinema Through the Eye of Magnum (2017) and the feature film Au bout des doigts (2018) starring Kristin Scott Thomas, Lambert Wilson, and Jules Benchetrit. For the latter, he also worked as the musical director, music coach, and understudy pianist for the lead actor.
Prior to his film work, he worked as an arranger for the Orchestre Français des Jeunes and the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris. He began his musical career in his teens as a drummer in a rock band signed by the French indie label Tricatel.
Harry Allouche is a graduate of Sciences Po Paris (Master of Experimentation in Arts and Politics) and the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris, where he now teaches harmony in the Sound Engineering Department.
