Adolphe Borchard (1882–1967) was a French pianist and composer who worked on a number of film scores during the 1930s and 1940s including large-budget films such as Ultimatum (1938).[1] IMDb credits at least 19 films. He has several music students. The Vietnamese composer Nguyễn Văn Quỳ is one of them and studied through distance education between 1953 and 1954.[2]
Borchard can be seen playing the piano in the first scene of Sacha Guitry's Confessions of a Cheat (1936) (French title: Le Roman d'un Tricheur), where he is introduced by the narrator. He also appeared in the same director's Quadrille two years later.
