Chris Botti Tucson, March 2025
GRAMMY-winning trumpeter Chris Botti, known for his collaborations with legends like Sting, Tony Bennett, and Barbra Streisand, returns with Vol. 1, his debut on Blue Note Records. After a decade-long break from solo projects, Botti revisits his jazz roots with a fresh focus on acoustic jazz and classic standards, bringing a more intimate sound with a small group of talented musicians. The album highlights his signature emotive trumpet playing, with standout tracks like "Danny Boy" and "Blue in Green" showcasing his mastery of the instrument. Produced by the legendary David Foster, Vol. 1 is a celebration of jazz’s timeless beauty and elegance, featuring contributions from musicians like pianist Taylor Eigsti, saxophonist Chad Lefkowitz-Brown, and classical violinist Joshua Bell. Botti’s cinematic, soul-stirring approach to the trumpet remains at the forefront, making Vol. 1 both a return to form and an exciting new chapter in his illustrious career. Fans can also look forward to future volumes in this evolving project.
