A talented guitarist and composer, Pat Metheny has won 20 Grammy Awards over the course of his career. Today, he unveils a premium box set version of his album 'Road to the Sun,' released in early 2021. The album includes a CD, two vinyl records, and two booklets with the scores of the composition. A must-have for fans of the great jazzman. There are only a handful of living musicians who can continuously reinvent themselves year after year, and Pat Metheny is one of the rare artists in the world who can claim such a description. On his latest album, Road To The Sun, he once again surprises us with his infinite ability to glean new perspectives while retaining the instantly recognizable Metheny sound. With two major new works, performed by five of the world's greatest guitarists, Metheny offers a new way to blur the lines between genres while simultaneously revealing new facets of an already expansive personal language. Grammy Award-winner Jason Vieaux, described by NPR as "perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation," was asked by Metheny to perform his four-movement solo guitar piece Four Paths Of Light. The centerpiece of this historic recording is 'Road To The Sun,' a six-movement piece for the Grammy Award-winning Los Angeles Guitar Quartet, LAGQ – Metheny describes them as "one of the best groups in the world." "Whenever an artist of Pat's stature not only writes a substantial work, but a piece that requires real virtuosity to play (and has his musical fingerprint all over it), it's a big moment for classical guitar." --- Jason Vieaux ---.
