Jean-Michel Jarre - 15887

French composer, performer and record producer, son of great film composer, Maurice Jarre.

Jarre is a pioneer in the electronic, ambient and new-age genres, and is known for organising outdoor spectacles featuring his music, accompanied by vast laser displays, large projections and fireworks.

His first mainstream success was the 1976 album Oxyg�ne. Recorded in a makeshift studio at his home, the album sold an estimated 18 million copies. Oxyg�ne was followed in 1978 by ƒquinoxe, and in 1979, Jarre performed to a record-breaking audience of more than a million people at the Place de la Concorde, a record he has since broken three times. 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.

By 2004, Jarre had sold an estimated 80 million albums and singles
