Description
This two-disc set captures the first night of Pat Metheny’s special performance at London’s prestigious Barbican Hall on July 18, 2026. Recorded in top-quality digital audience audio, this is a must-see performance that truly showcases Metheny at his most cutting edge. From the opening, the unexpected staging captivates the audience, and centered around tracks from his latest album, ‘Side-Eye III+’, Metheny boldly reinterprets classics from his long career, such as “Bright Size Life,” “Phase Dance,” “First Circle,” and “The Red One.” The sound, a blend of old and new, with guitar, keyboards, drums, bass, and vocals, is entirely different from a nostalgic “best hits live” performance. It demonstrates that even after 50 years in music, Metheny continues to pursue new forms of expression. Beautiful melodies, vibrant rhythms, and an unpredictable ensemble—all contribute to this captivating experience. This isn’t a rehash of past masterpieces, but rather a brand-new performance that only “Pat Metheny of 2026” can deliver. If you’re a Metheny fan, this is a must-listen.
