Pat Metheny’s Dream Box/MoonDial Tour is a unique celebration of the legendary guitarist’s extensive career, offering a deeply personal and intimate experience. Set to take the stage at Rutland’s Paramount Theatre on November 30, 2024, the concert will showcase Metheny’s unmatched versatility and skill, as he performs on more than a dozen guitars, weaving together a blend of compositions from his latest albums, Dream Box (2023) and MoonDial (2024), along with fan favorites from his nearly five-decade career.
Metheny, a 20-time Grammy Award winner across 10 different categories, has consistently defied genre boundaries, collaborating with diverse musicians such as Steve Reich, Herbie Hancock, and even David Bowie. His innovative projects include everything from solo guitar and small ensembles to orchestral works and his famed Orchestrion, an ambitious venture involving robotic instruments controlled by his guitar. Each of these undertakings reflects Metheny’s continual search for new ways to express his artistry, pushing the limits of what a solo performer can achieve on stage (Kingston Grand Theatre)(Centre for Fine Arts | Bozar Brussels).
The Dream Box/MoonDial Tour builds on the introspective nature of his recent releases. The Dream Box album emerged from a rediscovery of old recordings Metheny had stored away for years, while MoonDial explores the sonic possibilities of his baritone guitar. The solo tour, a first for Metheny, highlights his evolution as an artist, with each performance featuring unique improvisations and storytelling, offering audiences a glimpse into the experiences and reflections that have shaped his music(EFG London Jazz Festival)(Centre for Fine Arts | Bozar Brussels).
Fans attending the Rutland show can expect an evening that not only revisits beloved compositions but also presents Metheny’s new material with a fresh perspective, as he continues to innovate and “research” music through every performance. The show promises to be a must-see for both long-time fans and newcomers, capturing the spirit of an artist who remains at the forefront of musical exploration (HappeningNext)(Paramount Theatre – Rutland, Vermont).
