Bernie Williams
Recently nominated for a Latin Grammy Award, critically acclaimed guitarist/songwriter and famed NY Yankees star, Bernie Williams, is perhaps more recognized by baseball fans for playing all 16 years of his career for the New York Yankees, winning 4 World Series...and holding an overall .308 batting average in addition to many other accolades. However, Bernie Williams is now wowing fans and fellow artists in musical venues. Bernie's first album garnered critical acclaim and was featured on the Billboard Top 100. A classically trained guitarist, playing and composing music is Bernie's first true passion with influences that include jazz, classical, pop, Brazilian, and Latin sounds. In addition to playing lead and rhythm guitar, Williams compositions mix Bernie's love of jazz with the sophisticated Latin rhythms of his Puerto Rican heritage.

Pat Metheny
Over the years, world-renowned guitarist and composer Pat Metheny has won countless polls as "Best Jazz Guitarist" and awards, including three gold records. He has also won seventeen Grammy Awards spread out over a variety of different categories including Best Rock Instrumental, Best Contemporary Jazz Recording, Best Jazz Instrumental Solo, and Best Instrumental Composition. The Pat Metheny Group won an unprecedented seven consecutive Grammies for seven consecutive albums. On Sunday, October 10 at 7pm at the Mahaiwe, Metheny will perform his newest solo project, Orchestrion, for which he collaborated with several inventors to construct a large palette of acoustic sound-producing devices that he organized as a new kind of orchestrion. As the soloist, Metheny mechanically controls all of the instruments from his guitar in such a way as to give the listener the experience of a full orchestra.

This tour is no exception as Pat moves from brilliant solo guitar improvisations to the unveiling of a totally new technology for the presentation of an acoustically driven "solo ensemble" music he is dubbing Orchestrionics. The performance will feature music from the forthcoming CD of all new original compositions, as well as some older tunes from the Metheny songbook.
