| Editorial Reviews:
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

  When will I ever get sick of this Album? December 13, 2007 I can't get enough of this CD,
The DVD is nice, but it doesn't show them playing anything from the CD. I love the Paula Cole Duet, and I was surprised to hear Steven Tyler's Voice from Aerosmith.
I'm eager to get more of his stuff.
  Gary's Review September 27, 2007 The compleat companion to When I Fall in Love. An excellent CD.A must for a Chris Botti fan.
  Chris Botti "To Love Again" C/D May 13, 2007 This is the most incredible music!! Luscious sounds!! I was blown away when I first heard it. The duet with Sting is amazing! This song alone is worth the price.
  excellent April 1, 2007 I recently discovered Chris Botti and just love his style of playing. I play the trumpet as well (sporadically) and Chris gives me a sound to aspire to emulate. Excellent
  LOVE IT !!!!! March 28, 2007 Yes another smooth and playful CD by one of my favorites. This compilation of music and artists is playful and relaxing. I love all the songs except one of them (which I wont mention just in case you may like it). I especially love the song with Sting SUPERB!!
