Andrée Vaurabourg (1894-1980) was a French pianist and teacher. She was the wife of Swiss-French composer Arthur Honegger (1892-1955). Honegger married her in 1926 on the condition that they live in separate apartments, as he needed his space to compose.

She studied piano at the Paris Conservatoire, receiving first prize in counterpoint. She often performed her husband's piano works.

Vaurabourg's students of counterpoint included Pierre Boulez.
