Pierre Gallon, born on (1986-03-27)March 27, 1986 in Falaise (Normandy), is a French harpsichordist, organist, and fortepianist.
Brother of cellist François Gallon and son of lutenist Pascal Gallon, he grew up immersed in early music, leading him to start playing the harpsichord around the age of 9, at the Caen Conservatory, under Bibiane Lapointe and Thierry Maeder.
He was admitted to the Paris Conservatory in 2006 and graduated four years later from the harpsichord and basso continuo classes of Olivier Baumont and Blandine Rannou.
According to his biography on his website, he considers his encounters with Blandine Verlet, Élisabeth Joyé, and Pierre Hantaï as key moments in his learning journey.
He divides his concert activities between recitals, productions directed by Raphaël Pichon, and chamber music; he is regularly found alongside violist Lucile Boulanger, writer Pascal Quignard, soprano Alice Foccroulle, violinist Alice Julien-Laferrière, and harpsichordists Bertrand Cuiller, Yoann Moulin, or Freddy Eichelberger.
