Over the 20 years of his career, Laurent Couson worked as a composer, writer, pianist or orchestra conductor.

At a very young age, he graduated successfully from the Music Conservatoire of Tours (France) followed by the Conservatoire Supérieur de Paris and Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris. He started writing for Radio France, followed by Salle Pleyel, Théâtre des Champs Elysées, Théâtre de la Ville, and finally Carnegie Hall in New York.

For five years, he served as an Associate Music Director of the Three Cultures Orchestra and Chorus based in Rabat and Seville, Spain. As a conductor, he directed his own works with musicians of the French National Orchestra, Paris Opera Symphonic Orchestra, Orchestre Lamoureux, National Orchestra of Prague, London Symphonic Orchestra, Orchestra of the Bulgarian Radio, Bucharest Symphonic Orchestra, Orchestra of Budapest, European Camerata and Orchestra of Andalusia, Beijing Symphonic Orchestra, Bangkok Symphonic Orchestra…

His writing talents promptly met his composing skills resulting in the creation and production of several successful musicals including "Anges et Démons", "Romeos et Juliettes" or "Monsieur Luxure", all of them critically acclaimed.

Resolutely returning to film music composition, he signed the original scores for a number of feature films including movies by Claude Lelouch, Luc Besson, Xavier Palud or Nae Carenfil, as well as many productions in China, where he gave out over a hundred live performances.

He also expressed himself as an actor, including the lead role in Claude Lelouch's motion picture "Ces Amours là" followed by "Salaud on t'aime" alongside Johnny Hallyday, as well as "Un plus une" alongside Jean Dujardin.
