the clapping is a straightforward 10/8-12/8 alternate bars. I started to do it myself after the third listening and it does not surprise me that Metheny's fans can handle it.

Io infatti lo ho visto non mi ricordo in che trasmissione,, con il Pat Metheny Group che suonavano uno dei miei pezzi preferiti "Are you going with me?". Se mi ricordo bene era il 1988.
Ero scioccato dalla bellezza di tutto quello che suonavano, ed ero gia' un fan di loro da almeno 5/6 anni prima ed avevo alcuni suoi albums.
Hi people, I knew this amazing music wen I was 15 years old in the 90`s, since ever, I never found an awesome musician like Pat Metheny, the whole group is just great, its curious, I heve listenet this song thousand times and I ever find new marvelous things, this is for sure one of the greatest songs of the history,,,
Wow, thanks for posting this. I've been trying to figure out the guitar arrangement for months! The songbook doesn't give any voicings for the strumming sections and the mix of this video is very guitar heavy, cool.
This tune is ridiculously difficult yet these cats pull it off like they're just playing the latest Brittney spears tune!
Have you guys ever seen Pat wear LEATHER PANTS? What is up with his outfit here? No stripey shirt, tight leather pants? Maybe he had a date after the show. Seriously though, I love this guy and anyone that can play the way he does can wear whatever the hell he wants. I mean look at some of the get ups Michael Hedges used to wear on stage.
questo era DOC un programma della rai quando era la RAI, grande path, altri tempi per la tv italiana. oggi cari direttori siete monezza senza cuore. solo il denaro per voi conta. vergogna. bravi Gege teresfolo e Arbore
Has anyone here ever tried to actually play a chart of First Circle? My university Jazz band is working on this, and as beautiful a piece as it is, it is also ridiculously tricky to play.
Was there ever a guitarist who could absolutely wreak solo havoc and yet, as Pat does here, just play the rhythm role so supportively? The man is simply amazing.
I saw the PMG play this tune before the songs for the album even had titles. Pat kept referring to them as "special untitled song # ____". It was in Randolph, NJ.
His music had been the score for much of my life through the 80's.
Best concert I ever attended -- ever -- was a Pat Metheny Group concert in Omaha, Nebraska, where they played in the student union cafeteria with about 90 people there. Lyle was with them too and it was such a special night they shared with a few dozen of us mortals. I'll never forget that night as long as I live.
@KwameNewton It's a fairly complicated rhythm. The underlying pattern is 22 eighth notes, subdivided as 123-12-123-12-12-123-123-12-12. The clapping is simply NOT clapping on any of the 1's. Not too many non-musicians would be able to just pick that up and clap it.
@SamMoff As far as I know, while the overall pattern is 22/8, the actual time signature is an alternation of 12/8 and 10/8 every other bar. My high school marching band performed this song in the Greater St. Louis Marching Band Festival in 1998 to a fairly decent finish, although the judges had a hard time keeping track of the rhythm. :)
We did 11-beat phrases for marching purposes. It was pretty nuts.
It uses a combination of 12/8, 10/8, 12/8, 10/8...in a pattern of 3,2,3,2,2 on the 12/8 and a pattern of 3,3,2,2 on the 10/8. Then throughout there's a few 8/8 bars with a feel of 2,2,2,2 and some 12/8 bars with a 3,3,3,3 feel. The beginning claps are:
@KwameNewton t'en fais pas, on entend les musiciens qui l'accompagnent claquer des mains. Les seuls qui suivent dans l'assistance sont eux mêmes musiciens. Observe bien au début de la vidéo, il y en a plusieurs qui abandonnent.
We played this has a full blown percussion ensemble in high school. It was amazing then but I forgot just how talented of a composer Pat Metheny was. Years later, it's still fantastic.
Ragazzi, questa trasmissione la ricordo: si chiamava DOC, ed era condotta da Monica Nannini ed il grande Gegè Telesforo. Avevo 8 anni quando mio fratello la guardava, e me la ricordo ancora! (Per quanto ancora non conoscessi Pat Metheny)
none of lyle mays' piano solo versions ever compare to what he did on the original. And he never tries to go back to it either-- The simple, beautiful, 1 minute solo on the first circle album. oh well
I admire how in this song, metheny relegates himself to just play the comping guitar. it shows how humble he is. He doesn't need to show-off a big solo to create a masterpiece.
admiro como en esta cancion, metheny se relega a tocar acompañamiento. es como un acto de humildad. él no nesecita estar siempre delante para crear una obra maestra.
questo è il mio pezzo preferito di pat....è fantastico,un vortice di emozioni.......c'è un equilibrio perfetto tra "ispirazione" e "volontà di dare il massimo tecnicamente"
Gracias! Thank you for sharing this fantastic performance. This was the last music on Methenys best early work on the great ECM label a apex in his career in my opinion. This is a truly incredible piece (a favorite) which reflects yearning and the open landscapes of America's countryside. Here the band mixes complex rhythms, acoustic and electric nuances and a sense of melody that penetrates the heart and mind. Superb and timeless!!!
Finalmente disponibile sul tubo una delle performance più riuscite della storia della musica di Pat Metheny, ovvero Pat nel programma Doc di Renzo Arbore. C'è tutto in questa musica: feeling, melodia, ritmo, virtuosimo (trasparente, non si direbbe), un assolo memorabile di Lyle Mays che dimostra la gestione da parte di Pat dello spazio nella band per tutti i musicisti, una band storicamente "aperta" e creativa.
this actually being the first PMG I have ever heard, any phish fans out there hear a distinct divided sky... esp during the piano solo? I love that I continue to find influences for those guys as I get older... very cool song
I know what you mean. The 2 guys vocal part crescendoes and then the song pauses... that's a natural moment to show some appreciation. Would you have spared me the thumbs down if I'd put a wink in? I wasn't having a serious go at them! If I'd been there who knows I'd very likely have joined in, it is a song which inspires a lot of emotion and enjoyment, isn't it.
oh my... spent 7 months in the North West Territories and the only thing that kept me sane was this album that I had on my walkman as I biked up and down the mountains,,, this is soooooo nostalgic!!!! thanks for posting....
Thanks man, if the piano player gets it together :P yeah Pat Metheny is one of the few jazz guitarists I can not only respect, but enjoy. Although I wouldn't say he's traditional jazz, but yeah hoped I helped.
Don't ever try to clap along with this. It will drive you crazy trying to figure out the pattern. This is an amazing live version. Thanks for posting.
That's the time signature, 12/8 8th note gets the beat 12 beats in a measure, 1 la li 2 la li 3 la li 4 la li, 12 beats, in 10/8 it's the same but 1 la li 2 la li 2 la li 3 la li 4, back to one the 12/8, 10/8 alternates every other measure for the majority of the piece.
I personally don't usually deal with complex measures all that much, but I'd have to say it's not so typical. I understand a lot of the theory is this piece just cause we're doing an arrangement for our high school jazz ensemble so I've been doing more research on complex measures and some of the specific rhythms they use, but yeah the 12/8, 10/8 thing definitely gives it a unique flow, there are occasionally bars of 8/8 as well in the piece, I haven't looked at it all that much.
Good luck with your ensemble. I think Pat Metheny is timeless. It's something you can always come back to and say - damb that's good stuff. Anyway, good luck and keep jamming.
What would really be impressive is if anyone in this band played the tambourine or the handclaps in this song - no one did, of course, as that was the click track to the tune.
Pat is one awesome guitar player..composer..he's a renaissance man..BUT he like to wear the exact same shirt..I could swear I saw him wear that same shirt in 2003 concert. and his hair..ahahaha...GO PAT!!!!
Not so much - just practice. There is a GREAT big band arrangement of this, and it was pretty easy to play. Note fot note, btw. Anyway enough bragging, so, I finally figured out that Wertico is playing the ride pattern on TWO cymbals - wish I had known that before I practiced it and played it one handed - oops there I go again bragging.
fantastic music!

I know what you mean. The 2 guys vocal part crescendoes and then the song pauses... that's a natural moment to show some appreciation. Would you have spared me the thumbs down if I'd put a wink in? I wasn't having a serious go at them! If I'd been there who knows I'd very likely have joined in, it is a song which inspires a lot of emotion and enjoyment, isn't it.

Haha well, if you put it that way.
And you're right, the song is quite fabulous. It's an intense clapping rhythm.

Thanks man, if the piano player gets it together :P yeah Pat Metheny is one of the few jazz guitarists I can not only respect, but enjoy. Although I wouldn't say he's traditional jazz, but yeah hoped I helped.

Don't ever try to clap along with this. It will drive you crazy trying to figure out the pattern. This is an amazing live version. Thanks for posting.

12/8, 10/8
Fretkiller87 3 years ago
Sorry, I'm a music lover but not a player. Is that a sort of tempo?
utpunkster 3 years ago
That's the time signature, 12/8 8th note gets the beat 12 beats in a measure, 1 la li 2 la li 3 la li 4 la li, 12 beats, in 10/8 it's the same but 1 la li 2 la li 2 la li 3 la li 4, back to one the 12/8, 10/8 alternates every other measure for the majority of the piece.

Cool - thanks for the explanation.

:D sure thing, pretty sure I got it right, but it probably made no sense.
Fretkiller87 3 years ago
It does to some degree. I can hear them switching back and forth. I think it's what make this sounds so cool. Is this a typical thing?
utpunkster 3 years ago
I personally don't usually deal with complex measures all that much, but I'd have to say it's not so typical. I understand a lot of the theory is this piece just cause we're doing an arrangement for our high school jazz ensemble so I've been doing more research on complex measures and some of the specific rhythms they use, but yeah the 12/8, 10/8 thing definitely gives it a unique flow, there are occasionally bars of 8/8 as well in the piece, I haven't looked at it all that much.

Good luck with your ensemble. I think Pat Metheny is timeless. It's something you can always come back to and say - damb that's good stuff. Anyway, good luck and keep jamming.

technically the main beat is 22/8
meaning you could split it up in 12/8 then 10/8
but there is some 4/4
and the piano solo is 9/8
thedman696969 3 years ago
I believe the piano solo is for the most part in 12/8, with the odd passage of 8/8.
Likewise, the song is in 12/8 + 10/8, as you can feel a clear division of 1 at the beggining of every 10/8.

What would really be impressive is if anyone in this band played the tambourine or the handclaps in this song - no one did, of course, as that was the click track to the tune.

What skill it must require to be able to perform this tune live.
eliotschreiner 3 years ago
Not so much - just practice. There is a GREAT big band arrangement of this, and it was pretty easy to play. Note fot note, btw. Anyway enough bragging, so, I finally figured out that Wertico is playing the ride pattern on TWO cymbals - wish I had known that before I practiced it and played it one handed - oops there I go again bragging.
