Notes from the Festival Jazz di Roma program:

June 10 - PAT METHENY GROUP

"The Pat Metheny Group has been consistently regarded as the most valid modern group, the one with the greatest success among those living in the no-man's land between jazz and rock.

"Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays recently played in the U.S. together with Jaco Pastorius and Joni Mitchell, and the Pat Metheny Group is now on the top of the U.S. jazz charts with their latest release "American Garage".

"If the wind could sing, it would sound like the music from this impressionist jazz quartet."
