Powerful, Classy July 27, 2010 Mark A. Lowell (SC, USA) I am not a huge fan of Brass instruments, but my Dad plays trombone. This Blu-Ray DVD leaves us mesmerised!! Powerful, Classy, Beautiful.
Wow, real HD reference material, great lineup July 9, 2010 @alexvazquezgtz Last night I opened the Chris Botti in Boston BD, and I have one word for this: WOW !
Really, very good HD video, superb Dolby audio and an unmatched lineup that goes from Yo-Yo Ma to Katharine McPhee to Sting to Chris Botti himself.
This is a definite reference Blu Ray disc to enjoy for years to come !
More Than Just Another Concert Video July 2, 2010 mlm22 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Since everyone else has already said pretty much all there is to say about this concert (a must have), I just wanted to say that not only is Chris one of the best jazz musicians of all time, but he is a phenomenal human being as well. I've seen him in concert twice (once in Vegas and once in Albuquerque, NM), and both times, he came out after his concert and signed autographs and spoke to people on a level that is unheard of in today's society. He didn't just sign the autograph and hand it back to you and say "next". He took the time to speak to me, ask me a couple of questions, and we talked a little about his relationship with Sting (of which I am a huge fan). He posed for a couple of pictures with me and is just a genuinely nice guy. He does this after every concert, and I can't say enough about what that means, considering the big egos that are out there in the market today. This guy has it all. Thanks Chris!
A good reason to buy a Blu-ray player. June 6, 2010 William M. Huggins (Redmond, WA) I love this disk! I heard part of it on PBS. I then rented the regular DVD from NetFlix and loved it. I decided to pay the premium and bought the Blu-Ray edition. This disc would be perfect as a demo disc in a high-end audio-video store. The music is fabulous. Chris's trumpet work is beautiful. His ensemble of players is first-rate and his guests are great. I have played this disk many, many times and each time is a treat. 'I've Got You Under My Skin' featuring Katharine McPhee made me fall in love. There are cuts that bliss me out, especially 'Cinema Paradiso' featuring Yo-Yo Ma. A spectacularly beautiful piece. Tears of joy run down my cheeks.
The bonus Feature: "Behind the Scenes - Chris Botti in Boston" (40 min.) is also excellent.
This disc is reason enough to buy a Blu-ray player. I am about to buy a copy for my brother and sister to share the joy
Botti et al are amazing! April 15, 2010 M. Koblenz (PHL, PA) If you're looking for a wonderful evening in, to relax and simply enjoy an amazing concert without the hassles of travel, tickets, getting a good seat, etc.,
then this is for you. Can't say enough good things about this concert!
