Pat Metheny's recently announced his plans for The Orchestrian Project, his lastest musical endeavor that will use machines to mechanically play acoustic instruments. "Orchestrianics" is a term Metheny uses "to describe a new performance method to present music alone onstage using acoustic and acoustoelectric musical instruments that are mechanically controlled using the power of modern technology" (www.patmetheny.com).
The album and the corresponding tour are scheduled for 2010. Metheny states "I have realized by now that as much as I can describe this project, even the people closest to me have had no idea what I was talking about until they have actually heard the music and had an encounter with it all in action... I know for sure that you still have to experience it yourself to really know what it is".
