Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Somewhere, Kenny G is hiding behind his cascading ringlets in shame. Chris Botti, a jazz world super-talent whose trumpeting earns frequent comparisons to Miles Davis and Chet Baker, has found the formula for classing up the pop charts, and within it there's not a single soaring sax or tired attempt at career revivalism to be found. What we're treated to instead is an all-star lineup (Sting, Gladys Knight, Michael Buble and others) vocally saluting a musician whose resume reads like a page torn out of the Rock Snob's Dictionary: in addition to touring with Sting, Botti has played sideman to Paul Simon, Natalie Merchant, Joni Mitchell, and dozens more. Here that experience pays off handsomely. Gone are the matinee-idol smooth artist's earlier experiments with jazz synthesizers and pop-fusion compositions (see 2002's Night Sessions for those), and present in their place are his classical instincts. Gil Evans might have been his guide as the unmistakable opener 'Embraceable You,' one of a handful of instrumental tracks, swirls into the enchanting, ultra-sophisticated 'What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life,' for instance, and listeners need not feel like fogies for loving it. If Steven Tyler can sign on to sing along with a traditional arrangement of Charlie Chaplin's 'Smile' while the London Session Orchestra lays down its trademark jazz lushness behind him, after all, you can let down your guard long enough to admit this disc leaves you feeling vaguely dreamy. --Tammy La Gorce

A very beautifully conceived, lush album. But if you're
looking for trumpet pyrotechnics and zing,forget about it.
This will lower your blood pressure and lull you into a coma.
I recommend you listen to it with your partner over candle
light and some wine, but not too much- if you want to stay awake.

Chris Botti, a trumpeter-extraordinaire, has done it again after the success of "When I Fall In Love," my top favorite of all his albums, which charted #4 on Billboard Top 25 Albums when it was released. "To Love Again" is nothing but one of the best recordings of all-time and features Mr. Botti's thirteen attention-grabbing performances with his guest artists - Sting, Michael Bublé, Paula Cole, Gladys Knight, Jill Scott, Paul Buchanan, Renee Olstead, Rosa Passos and Steven Tyler, with the London ...

Chris Botti's trumpet playing makes him one of the greatest trumpet players of all time. Chris's sense of timing, his sensitivity when he plays and his energy all combine to create a brilliant experience; and with the vocalists on this CD Botti shines like never before.
The CD opens with an instrumental track, "Embraceable You." The other musicians play well in both major and minor keys as they support a flawless performance by Chris Botti. I know you'll like it! Sting joins Chris on "What ... Read More

This is my first introduction to Chris Botti and it is an excellent compilation of smooth jazz, great historic songs, wonderful collaborations and just plain beautiful soothing music. The collection makes a fine set for any background music without being intrusive but very pleasing to all ears. I can't imagine anyone not captured by the beauty of the trumpet with the right vocals.
Some of the music is known forever, like the Academy Award song for the 1969 film The Happy Ending, the song ... Read More
