Bruno Coulais

Born in 1954, Bruno Coulais was a French born film and television soundtrack composer whose first full-length work appeared in 1986: the score for the Sebastien Grall film La Femme Secrete. He kept to the television end of film scoring and composition for the next few years, but went on to the big screen with 1996's Microcosmos. Some of the most popular French movies over the next few years featured his work, including the 2001 world-wide hit, Winged Migration. After this brief -- and successful -- foray into cinematics, Coulais went off on his own, composing a children's opera, and delving into collaborative efforts with Akhentaon and A Filetta. ~ Chris True
