Jean Michel Jarre, born on August 24th, 1948 in Lyon, France, has been practicing piano since he was five years old. In his youth, Yale gave up the study of classical music, turned to be keen on jazz and organized a rock radio station-mystere ⅳ; In 1968, he became a student of Pierre Schaefer, a young music pioneer, and joined the De Recherches Musicales group. In 1971, the early electroacoustic music experiment produced the single La Cage. After a year, it has been abandoned and neglected. Yael's early work was very unsuccessful, and he had to follow the instructions of his colleagues. He struggled to find his own voice, composed music for many singers and films such as Francoise Hardy, and sought a way to break away from the monotonous foundation of electronic music, which was as formal and abstract as the best practicing experimenter. As a breakthrough, he gradually developed Oxygen, which was composed as an orchestral melody in 1977, and reached the second place in uk charts, which had a huge commercial impact. At that Time, the American Time magazine commented on Jean-Michel Jarre: a French revolution to rock the world after the publication of Yael's founding work Oxygene! Next, Equinoxe ("Equal Night and Day") in 1978 was also a very successful work. A year later, Yael held his first grand outdoor concert in the Place de la Concorde in Paris, France, with an estimated audience of 1 million, which earned him a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Only after the "Les Chants Magnetic Field" in the 198s, Yael embarked on a formal trip-followed by a trip to China with an incredible amount of stage equipment; Five performances, accompanied by 35 traditional musical instruments, followed by LP concert in China. In 1983, the (Ya 'er) music collection in the supermarket quickly became one of the most collectible albums in history-it was recorded by the Art Expo, and only one copy was crushed (nearly $1, was taken at a charity auction) and destroyed by the main auction to ensure the rarity of the record! Yale's next official release was "ZooLook" in 1984, which did not connect with the audience as successfully as his previous works. Apart from attending a global television broadcast attended by more than one million people, he was not free for two years before his excessive live performance in Houston on April 5, 1986 to celebrate the 5th anniversary of NASA.

after the release of "En Attendant Cousteau" in 199s, Yael's greatest life experience was that 2.5 million fans gathered in "Bastille Day" in Paris to watch his performance!

Jean-Michel Yael's trip to China in 1982 brought two concerts, one in Shanghai and the other in Beijing. This is how the album Les Concerts en Chine was born. In his eyes, this ancient oriental country is full of mystery, which is vividly displayed in the MTV of the song "Souvenir de Chine", that is, this album has been rated as the best album ofJarre\'s works by many Yael enthusiasts in Europe. Among them, "Laser Harp" and "Souvenir de Chine" were first heard by the author on the radio in 1988, including "Oxygene" and "Equinoxe", and I took a keen interest in his talent, wisdom and playing techniques. Perhaps some older people know that there is also an electronic organ player named Pu Qizhang in China. She played some electronic organ music works in the 198s, but then she disappeared. Comparatively speaking, however, Jarre's works express an atmosphere, an abstract atmosphere. He gives full play to the performance characteristics of electronic synthesizers, uses huge sound storage elements, develops strengths and avoids weaknesses, and creates a lively and light rhythm and beautiful melody, which is well displayed in the album Equinoxe in 1978. A rhythm comes from the electronic organ without hitting the performance!

in his works, you can also find the creative form of classical music, that is, the expression in the form of movement, overture, progress, climax, continuation of climax, ending, ups and downs and endless aftertaste. He impressed me with his understanding and mastery of melody, his deep arrangement skills and the abstraction of the atmosphere!

In recent ten years, many of Jarre's works have been adapted into Mix. Many Yael enthusiasts listen to it as much as many DJ music, and the author has also listened to many DJ music. Relatively speaking, the Mix adapted by Yael still has many features of the original version, which sounds good. However, like most electronic bands emerging in Europe, it is worth discussing whether it is worthwhile to make Yale's works full of commercial flavor! Anyway, even though Yale's works are not widely distributed in China, their circulation is quite small [I haven't seen or bought his CDs in stores yet (but there are many in Europe), except for Chronologie Part 6 Slam Mix (or an adapted version! )], but his works may have been adopted by our media, and people didn't pay attention to it. ), friends who like watching football may have heard his music Rendez-Vous 98\ for the 1998 World Cup in France.

JARRE's famous works have sold more than 15 million copies, and have so far maintained the cumulative sales champion in the history of French records. Oxygen is the introduction to electronic music, although some German pioneers such as Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze were known before him. It is the first time that ELECTRONICA has such a great response among the general public. JARRE took the right pulse, successfully integrated melody and orchestral arrangement into the original monotonous and pale electronic sound, and found a balance between experimentation (exploring the musical expression of SYNTHESIZER, a new means) and audibility.

Yani, a world-famous performer and composer, was nominated for Grammy Award twice, and her works have been the favorite of radio music in the Olympic Games for the past ten years. After successively completing concerts in Acropolis, Forbidden City in China and Taj Mahal, I finally released the latest album "If I Could Tell You"-a musical journey that hits the soul directly.

Yani, born in 1954 in a seaside village with unique scenery in Karamata, Greece, discovered her musical talent at the age of five. "I love music very much and often play the piano, but I refuse to receive formal piano education. My father wisely encouraged me to try boldly. When I didn't want to take piano lessons, he said,' OK, play whenever you want, and play whatever you want'. That's what I did then, and it's the same now. "

At first, Yani was determined to become a clinical psychologist. At the age of 18, he was accepted by a university in Minnesota, USA, moved to the United States and majored in psychology. However, after graduation, Yani chose his favorite music career. "I decided to try it for a year. I joined a rock band named "chameleon" and performed in some nightclubs. I have been immersed in music for a whole year, and I have never felt that life is so pleasant. In this way, I found something worth doing with my life. "

Yani devotes herself to music, from which she feels extremely satisfied, although success seems far away. "It took me a long time to succeed. Although it is difficult to make a living in many cases, I don't care. Creation is a very happy thing. The process of creation is one of the greatest pleasures in my life. "

The appearance of LINDA EVANS in Oprah Winfrey show was a great turning point in Yani's life. After that, Yani's career flourished. Since the performance of Radio City Music Hall in new york, his concerts have been broadcast on TV in 65 countries. In 1998, TRIBUTE ranked second in the overall tour ranking in the United States. But those terrible days taught Yani a lot, which has benefited him ever since. "Looking back, I realize that I have learned a lot of rules, so that I can concentrate my will to make the creation go smoothly. No one will teach you this, and you can only get it by experiencing life with your heart. "
