The double album of the China adventure will be released in the People's Republic. There will be a million cassettes and 100,000 LPs. And our return for this, says Jarre's manager Francis Dreyfus with a cheerful smile," is a sample record for Jean -Michel and one for me. There will be no royalties. But Dryfus will be the first foreign label to be officially pressed in China." Jean -Michel Jarre, 33, is not only a brilliant, prodigiously creative musician but a man of wide cultural interests, a keen and perceptive intelligence and a very clear -cut notion of his musical role in life. He is not only a composer and performer of synthesizer music, he is also a deeply dedicated advocate of music as the music of our time. electronic Charlotte and Jean -Michel join up with a group of Chinese sailors in front of the main gate of Peking's "Forbidden City." (Photo: the China He declines to make portentous noises about Charlotte Rampling). trip. He sums it up like this: "It has been a dream of mine for more than ten years. But now the experience seems like a dream in itself. A group of people with a lot of equipment visited China, made some mu-

sic and disappeared. But I feel that a lot of people, especially students, were moved by our coming and would welcome a re-

turn visit. I hope that our concerts have opened the door for other Western artists to go and perform their music in China." Although Jarre can hardly escape a gratifying awareness of being the first to do what he did, he sees the uniqueness of his achievement as being significant only in one sense: "Because this was a 'first' it meant that the interest of the media was particularly keen. And without the support of the media, the trip just would not have happened." That is a remark enitrely characteristic of Jarre who, as a musician of his time, totally accepts the fact that an artist's obligations to his public do not end when the concert is over. He is a great communicator in a variety of ways, a readily ac- cessible interviewee and a man who involves himself in every facet of the business he is in. The China Pilgrimage of Jean -Michel Jarre is the most re- markable development to date in a nine -year career which has not exactly lacked remarkable developments.

East -West cultural exchange reached a new plateau in October, 1981, when Jean -Michel Jarre made history by becoming the first major Western pop music artist to play concerts in China. The bulk of the credit for the success of this remarkable venture goes to Jarre himself, for he was personally involved in all aspects of an exciting project. Mark Fisher, chosen initially to take on responsibility for the stage design aspects of the trek, then happily saddled with re- sponsibility for overall design aspects of the undertaking, says: "Jean -Michel Jarre paid the utmost attention to detail, and he got the right people involved all the way." The U.K. Independent Television company Central, for- merly Associated Television, was chosen to film the tour and the 15 -man crew was headed up by director Andrew Pidding- ton. Says Piddington: Our experience in filming Elton John's tour of Russia made us ideal candidates for the job." And the 25 hours of film footage resulting from the China foray has to be edited down to a 90- minute video and television produc- tion which is virtually guaranteed worldwide screening. It was almost 18 months earlier, in May 1980, that Jarre first visited China and lectured at Peking's Conservatory of Music. An electronic music study group was set up there after Jarre presented a British AKS synthesizer to the students. And it was on that visit that Jarre first met Chinese govern- ment officials and wheels were set in motion for the fulfilment The dramatically lit Shanghai concert stage, scene of Jarre's third and fourth concerts. of his dream of an historic trip. Fisher, whose credits include the creation of "The Wall" for Pink Floyd, was approached in February, 1981. Enroute for Germany with "The Wall" tour, he hastily put some sketches together for Jarre to take to China on a return visit. In June, Fisher made his first trip to China with Jarre and Francis Dreyfus, Jarre's long -time manager, and suitable arenas were checked over.

Says Fisher now: "I suppose I did go there expecting to find a third world country with concert venues to match. Yet the technical standards of the two arenas we chose, in Peking and Shanghai, were surprisingly high. Not only were they both larger than any in London but the backstage facilities and power distribution equipment were quite excellent." The Peking area was built in 1958 and holds 18,000, while the Shanghai venue dates from 1968, with a capacity of around 28,000 or "about the equivalent of the Nassau and During the first Shanghai zoncert, Jean -Michel Jarre went Dallas Fort Worth Coliseums," according to Fisher. among the audience with a portable synthesizer and invited He adds: "One of the most impressive aspects was the them to try their hand on the keyboard. standard of graphic design of street posters there.
