Movie Review: Trumpet Magician
Summary: 5 Stars

A fantastic DVD featuring the Trumpet Master Chris Botti and an assortment of musical guests with varied styles. He brings out the best in each selection and it is amazing! I never tought that a trumpet's sound could be as evocative as it is when played by a true genius.

Movie Review: Botti tape
Summary: 1 Stars

We were disappointed..Not because of the content (we had heard it in a bistro and had to have it) but we thought we were getting a CD. We tried every means of getting it to play to no avail. There was no indication on the packaging that it wasn't a CD. Can you enlighten me? Time for returning had expired..

Movie Review: Vocals? What Vocals!
Summary: 4 Stars

Chris Botti - Live - With Orchestra & Special Guests
As other reviewers have noted sound quality is amazing. The instrumental tracks are incredible and Chris Botti's core band are outstanding especially the two Billy's on piano & drums. CB has a beautiful romantic quality to his playing and thoroughly deserves his place in the line of virtuoso jazz musicians through the ages. Unfortunately the DVD dies off a little in the middle when a trail of vocalists are ushered onstage to sing their obviously under-rehearsed songs although Renee Olstead singing 'Pennies from Heaven' is a gem. If you weren't watching the DVD you would swear you were listening to a seasoned jazz singer. Considering CB could ask any vocalist in the world to his party, why didn't he? I would love to hear him play with the likes of Diana Krall, Jamie Cullum, Natalie Cole or Michael Buble to name just a few. Next album perhaps. It all comes right in the end but no need to encore with a muzak version of an old 'Police' hit. But it looked like a lot of fun was had by all. Definitely worth adding to your live jazz collection.

Movie Review: A GREAT SHOW
Summary: 5 Stars

A VARITY OF EXCELENCE IS SHOWN HERE ON THIS BLU-RAY .BETWEEN 5.1 SOUND AND HD DISPLAY. LET ALONE THE PROFORMERS ON THE STAGE. JUST A WONDERFUL CONCERT.
