Pat Metheny is nothing short of a musical genius.I did see Orchestrion live several years ago in NYC (Carnegie Hall I believe). Amazing to say the least. At first, I didn't realize at the time I purchased the tickets that he was performing alone promoting this new record. I've been a fan for a long time and was looking forward to see a full band. Happy I did see him. I also managed to see Pat perform at a rare engagement near my home in New Yorks Hudson Valley. He played at a place called "The Falcon". A small venue (bar/restaurant) which was converted from an old barn. THAT, was definitely one of if not the best live performances I have ever seen in my life. He is so humble, yet such an amazing artist.

George Kalmancy all what you say is so true about PM. I have an amazing story about him after the SON tour gig, when they were in Lisbon Coliseu...the man is unreal.

I saw PM at UCLA last October, 2023, little did I realize that he was performing a one man retrospective and I was utterly disappointed. It felt more like a recital and my friends were falling asleep. I felt bad for my friends, who I persuaded to buy tickets to see PM. The next time PM is in town, I will inquirer to insure it is not a one man show format. He did play some orchestration material toward the latter part of the show and that was the highlight of the evening. The lesson I learned was to try and make sure you know what type of performance to expect the artist to perform. Maybe, research some recent reviews to get an indication of what the show should consist of. I did that after the fact, and found out that PM had performed in San Diego the night before and an unhappy heckler in the front row had to be removed from the show because he was so disappointed with the one man format. I hope this helps. Pat is still and will always be my main man. I listen to his music everyday!!!

Never heard of Pat Metheny till someone gave me tickets to see The Pat Metheny Group at the Tower theater in Philadelphia. He did Are You Going with me. Was utterly blown away. Some of the licks and runs and his technique, I was totally blown away. His mastering of the guitar . Had me giggling snd shaking my head in amazinment. Well! He sucked..just kidding. He still continues to blow me away over 40 yrs today. Thank you Pat for coloring my life opening me up to a whole new world of music 🎶

This guy is brilliant and in a league of his own. I read an article in the arts section of the New York Times some years ago and the complexity in which he spoke about music was akin to a physics professor gushing about quantum physics. I love the cadence of his music. The undercurrent of passion, emotion and precision. The many moving parts that come together so beautifully. I love that many of his songs are climatic. That they are sometimes three differents songs in one. I often wonder what he's thinking, how he comes up with

You show me where the bar line is set, so that I will never lose my lust for endless musical exploration and euforic musical moments shared. We all have so much potential within ourselves and you show us that nothing is impossible. From the bottom of my heart - thank you Pat, for all the inspiration you give me on my journey. I hope that our paths will cross some day, if not you will still be with me and for that I am truly grateful.

It is a pretty unique way of expressing music. Every part comes right from Pat, and is not filtered through the interpretation of other live players. Like everything else Pat has done, it's just another step down his musical path and will be the thing of the moment, for a limited time only. Then he will move on to another new expression. Any true Metheny fan expects Metheny's music to change constantly. This is but one reason why he stands miles above most other musicians, who find their groove and never stray far from it. By way of comparison, name one big name rock band that is still together more thn 20 years after hitting fame and fortune, AND is making new hits on a regular basis to this day. Musicians that can keep it fresh and interesting and don't fall back on their own catalog of standards and cliches are one in a million, or more rare than that.

Kerry Maxwell I totally agree, and was thinking the same when watching this, although Zappa did an amazing job in pushing the envelope with traditional orchestration, although it really did seems to frustrate him not to have the control and exactness of what this system could offer.. Also, by the looks of things the Synclavier was at the hub of this, so Zappa would fit right in... I saw the Synclavier in the corner or the Orchestra EPK video, don't know if Pat still uses it..

The real musicians of today are Corea, McLaughlin, Ponty, and Di Meola. Truly skilled musicians. And if one deserves a special note it is Metheny's "Orchestrion" project. This work combining musician inventors is a masterpiece of beauty and innovation that to this day remains unsurpassed. Pat takes you on a journey that will keep you guessing what emotions he taps into for an hour and every emotion is one of wonder. These are the men aligned with Bach, Beethoven and Brahms.
