Cf. Pat Metheny Group. "... this music is totally improvised from beginning to end,based on no preconceived melodic, harmonic, or structural material... ". With the modern piano technology now available, we were able to record [in addition to the acoustic piano performances themselves] the information about the notes he played to a computer simultaneously, allowing him to add and shape the orchestrations that accompany the acoustic piano after the fact. [...] "The results: piano compositions of the moment, combined with an expansive extra layer of musical orchestration that derives almost exclusively from the notes and textures of the initial piano performances.".
