Jean-Michel Jarre - The Concerts In China (Vinyl)
$92.00
Regular price $78.00Originally released in 1982, The Concerts In China served as a document of an historic concert tour Jean-Michel Jarre undertook in 1981 - consisting of five spectacular concerts in the People's Stadium of Shanghai and Beijing. It was the first time a Western music artist had performed in the country following the Cultural Revolution.
This 40th Anniversary remastered edition of ‘The Concerts In China’ will be available as 180g 2LP version with gatefold sleeve, including a collector’s poster featuring unpublished images. The track list mirrors the original version of the album, including the beautiful studio recording ‘Souvenir of China’ which closes the album.
One new composition included on the album was ‘Fishing Junks at Sunset’, a new arrangement of a traditional Chinese song known as the ‘Fisherman's Chant at Dusk’, which was performed and recorded with The Peking Conservatoire Symphony Orchestra. The concert tour was the first time Jarre performed his music with other musicians on stage and featured the first use of a laser harp.

OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders).
