Roger Roger, born August 5, 1911 in Rouen and died June 12, 1995 in Deauville, is a French composer.

Roger Roger begins by composing music for documentaries, then films (pantomime scenes in Les Enfants du paradis), then programs like Reine d'un jour with Jean Nohain or le Crochet radiophonique with Saint-Granier. From 1955 he published around twenty albums which earned him a worldwide reputation similar to that which Paul Mauriat would later have. Roger Roger has composed for famous artists such as Édith Piaf, Maurice Chevalier, Jean Sablon, Charles Trenet. One of his most widely distributed works, Volatiles, is an instrumental known to everyone in the 1950s and 1960s, even if no one knows the title, nor the composer: the piece served as connecting music to the programs of the Parisian post (which will become France Inter).

In 1960, Roger Roger composed a piece in honor of Pierre-Marcel Ondherv, the PMO Polka, which he released on record with his orchestra. In the 1960s, he tried electronic music and produced for Chappell editions, in collaboration with Nino Nardini alias Georges Teperino or Peter Bonello, and under the name Cecil Leuter (name of his grandmother), the Electronic Pop album.

Roger Roger married the Swiss singer Eva Rehfuss (sister of the baritone Heinz Rehfuss and great-granddaughter of the composer Felix Mendelssohn). He died on June 12, 1995 in Deauville.
