Chris Botti Live in Boston

Chris Botti live at the historic Boston Symphony Hall with the Boston Pops Orchestra on Sept 2008. I've been waiting for this cd/dvd for quite a few months now. Chris Botti is quite incapable of producing a project that is less than impeccable and gut-wrenchingly beautiful. He takes it to a whole new level with this album that excites music lovers with an outstanding line-up of guest performers like John Mayer (!!!!!), Sting, Dominic Miller, Josh Groban and Yo-Yo Ma. Abi and I were just saying it's like audio porn. haha! Sting, Josh Groban and Chris sharing the same stage at once! It's crazy! Watch the videos below and you'll know what I mean.

Right now the album is only available at HMV. Clueless Gramophone staff don't even know of this album's existence or arrival. Tsk tsk!


"Glad to be Unhappy"- Chris Botti, featuring John Mayer, guitar-less!! John Mayer singing Frank Sinatra with a full orchestra...an amazing first. This classy performance makes me so happy!



"Shape of my Heart"- Chris Botti, with Sting, Dominic Miller & Josh Groban sharing the stage for the first time!
