Music Composer
Welcome to my website!
I am a music composer living in Montreal (Quebec) and I have dedicated my life to my first passion: music. You can listen to samples of my compositions below. If you want to know more about my musical journey, just click the button below: BIO – The New Age Adventure.
I would like to invite you to follow me, not only in my musical adventure, but also in one of my travels around the world. If this piques your curiosity, click on the button below: The African Adventure. It is this trip that inspired me to compose the album Storytelling of the Tribes which you can hear by clicking the LISTEN menu tab at the top of the page.

[Yi-King Vol.1] ”Yi-King by Jean-Pierre Labreche is a little masterpiece of relaxation music”
Yves Ducharme, responsible for the musical section of the bookstore L’ Ésotérique Nouvel Age and New Age distributor. Le Guide Ressources
[Yi-King Vol.2] ”Aloha Bahia is a lush gorgeously exotic piece capturing the ancient magnetic beauty and romance of the tropics of the West.”
Renée Gelpi, journalist, Dimensions, Toronto’s New Age Monthly
[Yi-King Vol.3] ”Yi-King III It is out of a feeling of continuity that evolves the last part of the triptych and Québécois best-seller Yi-King by composer and musician Jean-Pierre Labreche, one of the founders of Québécois New Age music. Undeniably more delicate and more refined than the two first Yi-Kings, this production highlights the new sounds (more electroacoustic) that Labreche has developed in the past few years. The result is a very meticulous sound, among the leading international experiments in the field (I am thinking here of Steve Roach and even Vangelis…) If the composer continues in this approach, his next album should bring him international recognition.”
Stéphane Desjardins, columnist for the musical section of Le Guide Ressources
[Sadhana] ”The talent of Jean-Pierre Labreche, creator of the Yi-King series (one of the great names of Québécois New Age music) arises again in the soundtrack of the movie Sadhana… The style of the work is moreover, surprising… especially if one thinks that the author is a Westerner, whose musical and philosophical background has nothing in common with that of India. The performance is flawless and Labreche‟s incursion in these new areas expands his means of expression.”
Stéphane Desjardins, journalist, Le Guide Ressources
[Water Jammin] ”Sunny song. A nice recorded reggae song, good voice and backings, nice sounding guitar… a song that make you happy in the morning and the rest of the day. Looking forward to hear more songs
… well done !”
