The CBS Sunday Morning profile of Pat Metheny and his Orchestrion album and tour, scheduled to air on yesterday's episode of the program, has been postponed to an unspecified later date. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and will be sure to bring any rescheduling news in the Nonesuch Journal as a future date becomes available.

In the mean time, Metheny's Orchestrion tour continues its western run this week, following weekend stops in Nevada and California. There's one more show in California, at the Civic Auditorium in Santa Cruz tonight, before it all heads north for this week's stops in Oregon and Washington state.

The Santa Cruz Sentinel, in a preview of tonight's show, says "Metheny's one-of-a-kind genius takes another evolutionary step forward with his latest project, titled Orchestrion." The Sentinel's Wallace Baine says the album "shows Metheny in fine form, creating new and ambitious dynamic musical textures while maintaining the trademark, oceanic sound that Metheny is famous for."

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports from Friday night's show at that city's Grand Sierra Resort Casino, saying: "A captivated audience watched Pat Metheny perform Friday night as the masterful manipulator of his orchestrion." Reviewer Geralda Miller concludes: "With his one-man band invention and superb musicianship, Metheny wowed, delighted and dared others to make their dreams come true." You'll find the concert review at rjg.com.

"Epic!" exclaimed SanDiego.com in its review of last week's show in that city. "If you’ve heard his latest CD, Orchestrion, you know that he achieves a remarkably warm, human sound with this ensemble," writes reviewer Christian Hertzog, with "works with well-shaped build-ups to wonderfully timed climaxes, lush, scale-based harmonies, and memorable melodies, all of which showcase his effortless technique and his convincing improvisations."

Of the live experience, Hertzog concludes: "I am not likely to forget the sight and sound of Metheny and his orchestrion, and I doubt my fellow audience members will either. If you have the opportunity to catch this tour, scrape up the money and buy yourself a ticket. You will not regret the experience."

    American Railroad, the new album from the Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens, is out now. It is the culmination of four years of research, collaboration, and music-making, having brought Silkroad artists all across the US to uncover and uplift stories of those who built the transcontinental railroad and connecting railways across North America. "The result is a tapestry of stories, traditions, and music that have shaped our multifaceted cultural identity, and that must be heard and recognized," Giddens says. Also out now are a performance video of the track "Mahk Jchi" and the first episode of the American Railroad podcast series. The US fall tour continues to November 23.
