Guitar Tales: Metheny's Musical Mosaic at Boulder Theater
Playing for the first time in the Muriel Kauffman Theatre, a surprisingly intimate 1,800-person room that opened, along with the rest of the performing arts center in which it’s housed, in 2011, Pat Metheny had a space ideally suited for his famously buttery tone.
The iconic guitarist was in ebullient form as he breezed through an astonishing set packed with classics from his huge discography with his talented young Side-Eye Trio
Once after a Saratoga Springs club gig, I asked Pat Metheny about the delay since his last local show. He said he always brings new music to his audience so he doesn't come back until he's made some, a mission statement both conscientious and creative.
