Pat Metheny was born in Kansas City on August 12, 1954 into a musical family. By the age of 15, he was working regularly with the best jazz musicians in Kansas City, receiving valuable experience at an unusually young age. Metheny first burst onto the international jazz scene in 1974. On his first album, Bright Size Life (1975), he reinvented the traditional “jazz guitar” sound for a new generation of players.

Pat Metheny, Composer/Guitarist (EG5)

Register for EG 2020.

30 April - 2 May 2020

Our team has been working hard behind the scenes to bring you a superb program for EG2020. However, in light of growing and legitimate concerns regarding the rapid spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) which have gutted international events of all sizes, we have made the difficult decision to put EG on hiatus until it is once again deemed safe.

We know how much each of you look forward to EG and we were looking forward to seeing old friends, and welcoming many new ones, but we do need to prioritize the health and safety of our attendees, presenters, and partners, especially those traveling from afar.
We will be in touch in due course with future plans.
