Pat Metheny - Orchestrion

Description

• Artist: Pat Metheny
• Publisher: Hal Leonard

Metheny says, 'Orchestrionics' is the term that I am using to describe a method of developing ensemble-oriented music using acoustic and acoustoelectric musical instruments that are mechanically controlled in a variety of ways… with the pieces on this particular recording leaning toward the compositional side of the spectrum. On top of these layers of acoustic sound, I add my conventional electric guitar playing as an improvised component. Here are the original scores for five pieces: Entry Point Expansion Orchestrion Soul Search Spirit of the Air.
