This man and his work will impact music forever. It is difficult to comprehend that he is under appreciated at this time. However we all know that this sort of thing happens in the arts as we equally know that his excellence will shine in a forever way. He lifts up thru his music both layman and those of his own caliber. Yes thank you for the treasures you have given to us all Pat Metheny . Your decency and deep commitment to teaching and sharing introducing young and old talents of so many has expanded so many of us to the rich and wonderful world of music in the broadest sense. My nick-name for you is expansion. Thanks again for all of your work.

I was at the show at the Kennedy Center when they announced that Pat won.
He came on stage to a standing ovation and said he is glad it is months away as he doesn’t know what to say
now. He was very moved.
The show and band were great!!
