Chris Botti (trumpet) "Miami Overnight"

Christopher Stephen Botti or Chris Botti [BOH-tee] (born October 12, 1962) is an American trumpeter and composer. Born in Portland, Oregon and raised in Corvallis, Oregon, he spent two years of his childhood growing up in Italy. His earliest musical influence was his mother, a classically trained pianist and part-time piano teacher.
He plays a Martin Committee Handcraft trumpet made in 1940, and uses a 3 silver plated mouthpiece from Bach made in 1926, having recently retired his 1920 3C Bach mouthpiece. He counts Miles Davis among his most significant influences.
Botti attended Mount Hood Community College in Gresham, Oregon where he studied under Larry McVey whose renowned jazz program had come to be a regular stop for Stan Kenton and Mel Tormé when they were looking for new players. It was here he played alongside his friend, trombonist and future Academy Award nominated filmmaker, Todd Field.
After leaving Mount Hood, Botti studied under David Baker and Bill Adam at Indiana University.

listening to botti and other jazz gives you so much more than the mainstream pop crap that comes out today. Besides the rare true artist most of it is just throwaway junk that has no shelf life. Feel bad for young people who only listen to gimmicky pop and they never experience what moving real music is like and where it can take you.

Chris Botti is hot. His music takes you to a peaceful level that only a few true musicians can take you. This kind of music makes me yearn for the days when music was performed by "true artist".
