As Director of LEMUR, the group who created most of the instruments for the Orchestrion, I was thrilled to be a part of this project. If you want to hear more work on LEMUR’s instruments, check out LEMUR’s other videos at lemurbots.org

Metheny is so creative. Orchestrion takes the idea of a player piano and extends it about as far as it can go! Very innovative.
