Henri Bourtayre starts playing piano in nightclubs from Biarritz and the Basque coast, and occurs locally in meetings and weddings with singer Andre Dassary, it follows that in Paris, in 1937. He was soon hired by Editions Ray Ventura, where he met Raymond Legrand, musician and orchestra leader, for which he will begin to write from 1941. He won his first great success with my jingle, sung by Tino Rossi. Almost always on the words of Maurice Vandair he wrote soon for the big stars of the era: Andre Dassary, Tino Rossi, Maurice Chevalier, Georges Guétary. In 1944, Fleur de Paris is something of anthem of Liberation. The End of Occupation reveals new stars for which Henry made Bourtayre: Luis Mariano (My Sleeping Beauty, 1944), Lina Margy (Girl with Domingo), and especially Jacques Hélian and his orchestra, succeeding Raymond Legrand, and became its resident composer. Without abandoning Vandair Maurice, Henri Bourtayre frequent contributor to the era with a new lyricist, Henri Kubnick, radio producer. In the early 1950s, Henri Bourtayre written especially for a newcomer in the field of music hall, Robert Lamoureux. Bourtayre Henry is the author of the score of four operettas (including Miss Cow-Boy, and The Next 1947, 1952). In this area, only Sky Fighters (1955), with Luis Mariano, obtained a real success. We owe to the music of Henry Bourtayre fifty films. Bourtayre Henry is the father of composer Jean-Pierre Bourtayre, born 1942.
