Henriette van den Boorn-Coclet (15 January 1866 – 6 March 1945) was a Belgian composer from Liège. She studied at the Liège Conservatory with Jean-Théodore Radoux and Sylvain Dupuis, where she won prizes in solfège (1887), harmony (1882) and fugue (1884), and a silver medal for chamber music (piano and strings) in 1886. After finishing her studies, she taught harmony at the Conservatory from 1892 to 1931. In 1895 she won the Prix de Rome. She died in Liège. Her music shows a late 19th-century neo-romantic style and includes works for orchestra, chamber ensembles, songs and piano.
