Brad Mehldau: Highway Rider

Read "Highway Rider" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

As a classically trained teen, Brad Mehldau was introduced to the music of Keith Jarrett setting him on the road to jazz. He did not abandon the classical genre and those influences were powerfully present in his first solo release Elegiac Cycle (1999). He has since written pieces for the Orchestre National d'Île-de-France and Carnegie Hall ...

Caetano Veloso: zii e zie

Read "zii e zie" reviewed by Ernest Barteldes

by Ernest Barteldes

Legendary Brazilian singer-songwriter Caetano Veloso follows up on the career-shifting Cê (Nonesuch, 2008) with zii e zie, featuring the same band. Though the lineup includes only guitar, bass and drums (plus some occasional acoustic guitar from Veloso), the arrangements all carry his signature complexities and bossa-inspired changes. In contrast to Cê, there are few ...

Pat Metheny: Orchestrion

Read "Orchestrion" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Ha mobilitato uno stuolo di programmatori, elettrotecnici e ingegneri Pat Metheny per realizzare il sogno che cullava fin da bambino. Altro che diventare un famoso chitarrista e vendere decine di migliaia di dischi, altro che suonare con Ornette Coleman e riempire i palazzetti dello sport di mezzo mondo; noi mica lo sapevamo, ma l'eterno bravo ragazzo ...

Highway Rider

Read "Highway Rider" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

For a pianist who not only demonstrated remarkable promise, but actually began delivering on it at a very early stage in his career with what would ultimately become his five-part Art of the Trio (Warner Bros.) series, Brad Mehldau's side projects have--with the exception of the solo Live in Tokyo (Nonesuch, 2004)--met with mixed reactions. Perhaps ...

Pat Metheny: Orchestrion

Read "Orchestrion" reviewed by Nenad Georgievski

by Nenad Georgievski

In Pat Metheny's career, stylistic shifts and sudden breaks from the norm occur more often than not. Even though it is evident that he is rooted in jazz, his music encompasses so much more. With the exception of few records, Metheny has been playing it pretty safe for some time now, sticking to ...

Pat Metheny: Pat Metheny: Orchestrion

Read "Pat Metheny: Orchestrion" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Orchestrion is no doubt going to be tremendously popular with Pat Metheny's devoted fan base, and anyone else who takes the opportunity to see the man on his upcoming tour. As one of the guitarist/composer's grandest projects, it will attract more than a few of those casually acquainted with Metheny's fame, curiosity piqued by the unusual ...

Pat Metheny: Orchestrion

Read "Orchestrion" reviewed by Chris May

by Chris May

In a career waymarked by innovation and the unexpected, guitarist Pat Metheny, at age 55, has pulled another surprise out of the pack. This time it's his use of an orchestrion, a steam age contraption which plays a battery of real instruments--wind, percussion, fretboard and keyboard--blown or struck by mechanical devices. In the nineteenth century, orchestrions ...

Orchestrion

Read "Orchestrion" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

The first question that has likely crossed the minds of many who've heard about guitarist Pat Metheny's Orchestrion is: why? Metheny has already published plenty of information about this unique project at his website, but it still doesn't get to the real heart of the matter. Orchestrion is a solo album in the truest sense of ...
