Jean-Michel Jarre performed a handful of concerts in Peking and Shanghai in 1981, marking the first time that a modern Western musical artist had played in communist China. Highlights from the show include Jonques de Pecheurs au Crepuscule (Fishing Junks At Sunset), a welcome respite from Jarre's ultra-modern music that features a traditional Oriental arrangement, and new works like Arpegiateur and Nuit A Shangai that compare favorably with the brisk, streamlined sound of Tangerine Dream in the early ‘80s. Connecting these sections with dialogue and street noises (some of which, in the case of Les Chants Magnetiques, have always been there) breaks up the concert nicely, although two light-hearted intermissions (L'Orchestre Sous La Pluie and La Derniere Rumba) make too fine a point of it.
