Chris Botti @ SF Jazz:

“With his finely etched features and piercing green eyes, trumpeter Chris Botti combines matinee idol looks with the simmering lyricism of an expert balladeer” (The Mercury News).  Botti, the world’s best-selling jazz instrumentalist, was never the same after hearing Miles Davis’ version of “My Funny Valentine” when he was 12. A trumpeter with a sumptuous, enveloping tone, fluent phrasing, and sense of space, Botti became a masterly musician equally at home in the realms of jazz and pop.

He honed his craft performing and recording with stars like Frank Sinatra, Buddy Rich, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, and Sting, who featured him on his Brand New Day tour and who was one the stellar artists on Botti’s chart-topping 2009 album Live in Boston, recorded with the Boston Pops Orchestra.

Botti’s 2012 release Impressions won the GRAMMY for Best Pop Instrumental Album, and he made his Blue Note Records debut in 2023 with Vol. 1, his first new recording in over a decade. Stepping back from the lush orchestral arrangements of his recent work, Botti returns to an intimate, small group dynamic on the album, focusing on classic standards like “Old Folks,” “Blue in Green,” “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered,” and “Someday My Prince Will Come,” among others. Produced by 16-time GRAMMY-winner David Foster, Vol. 1 features performances by violinist Joshua Bell, pianist Taylor Eigsti, guitarist Gilad Hekselman, and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta.

Botti’s SFJAZZ shows have become a New Year tradition, and always sell out.
