"The result is an ornate, stunningly vivid sound world that neither artist would have found on his own." Listen to the complete All Things Considered review here.

  • Pat Metheny’s Recording of John Zorn’s "Tap: The Book of Angels, Vol. 20" Out Now

    Pat Metheny’s recording of John Zorn’s Tap: The Book of Angels, Vol. 20 from Zorn’s Masada Book Two is out now, their first collaboration. The New York Times calls it "audacious ... an impressive feat of imagination, and a strikingly clear distillation of both artists’ distinctive languages." The Independent says it's "dazzlingly virtuosic and evocative." All About Jazz calls it "a suite of half a dozen cinematic pieces, some of truly epic proportions ... the work of an artist who is doing anything but resting on his considerable laurels and accomplishments."

About this Album

This first US release of the 2002 European hit offers previously unavailable bonus tracks. The set features evocative Polish singer Anna Maria Jopek reimagining well-known Metheny instrumentals with lyrics and vocals. All About Jazz praised "the intensity and creative spark" of Metheny's playing.
