The Orchestrion Project is an album by American guitarist Pat Metheny released as a double CD in early 2013 on the Nonesuch label following the release of a concert video with the same name in 2012.
[4] AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars, and in its review Thom Jurek said, "While this album's predecessor evidenced his accomplishment in the instrument's creation and operation, The Orchestrion Project reveals that Metheny's possibilities with it have only been tapped".
But Metheny's use of it here delivers a pale, expensive shadow of what a real band can achieve.
The project doesn't feel like it has longevity, and this release is for the hardcore only".
