Best Botti so far... August 29, 2010 Ross P. Hyland (Stanwell Tops, N.S.W. Australia) I enjoyed this blu ray more than Chris Botti's previous release (which is saying something!) and I highly recommend it. The song choices and the show overall just seems to work better to me. Beautifully filmed and edited, the only thing I don't like is one aspect of the sound. The audience clapping in time is channeled through to the surround speakers as expected, but it is a terrible cheap and tinny sound.... almost like a synthetic clapping sound with the treble turned up high. And it's too loud which tends to hurt the overall mix at times. Actually the soundscape is a bit too conservative / safe / thin / lacking dynamics for my taste..... but perhaps that style of mix better suits such a large stage full of musicians. However on balance, this is an absolutely excellent show with some very odd surprises (Steve Tyler??) that somehow just work really well. Great stuff indeed.
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
