About Chris Botti:
This native Oregonian studied jazz trumpet, finding himself in New York by 1986, where he studied with the late trumpet master Woody Shaw. Inspired by the calm coolness of Miles Davis, Botti eschewed the bebop style for a lush, atmospheric approach that has won him praise from both jazz aficionados and mainstream pop music fans. His most recent critically acclaimed album, To Love Again, pairs his expressive trumpet with such famous singers as Sting, Michael Buble, Gladys Knight and Steven Tyler.
