Pat Metheny Group: The Way Up: Live (2005)

From the beginning, this band has been on a mission. Throughout the group's history, there has been a sense of potential and an abundance of ideas that have been thrilling to explore. THE WAY UP is a long form piece that describes in detail many of the most pressing issues in our musicals lives. The original recording (2004) was a milestone for us, but for the tour that followed allowed us the opportunity to discover the piece in front of audiences around the world over the course of a 6 month tour. This film, shot during the Asian leg of that tour in Seoul, Korea, is an accurate and special documentation of the group at it's best, performing The Way Up - Live.
