JEAN MICHEL JARRE. French composer, performer and music producer. He is a pioneer in the electronic ambient and New Age genres and is well known as an organiser of cutting-edge outdoor spectacles of his music featuring lights, lasers and fireworks.

More albums were to follow, but his 1979 concert served as a blueprint for his future performances around the world. Several of his albums have been released to coincide with large-scale outdoor events and he is now perhaps more well known as a performer than as a musician. As of 2004 Jarre had sold an estimated 80 million albums. He was the first Western musician officially invited to perform in the Peoples Republic of China and currently holds the world record for the largest-ever audience at an outdoor event .....
