 | New Fan! Feb 9, 2010 |
I've heard some of his music some time ago but was not a really a big fan untill I got this Blu-ray disc. The Quality of his music along with it being Blu-ray, and the audio quality really won me over. This is a really fun concert to watch as the song selection never gets boring. He brings out some realy top notch guests to play and have sing along with band. I mean really top notch, Yo Yo Ma's performance (as usual) was really heart felt, and when Steven Tyler sang to his father, that was special. This whole concert is filled with special songs and feelings. The quality of the video, video mix, audio, audio mix is also special and with feeling. Just an all around over the top performance and it's on Blu-ray!!!! Keep'um commin!!!!
I wish this site had a 3 Criteria rating that would make for a quicker and more accurate and fair rating of Cd's, DVD's and Blu-ray's.
1. Performance
2. Quality of Audio
3. Quality of Video (for DVD's and Blu-ray's)
1.*****
2.*****
3.*****
Bands that wish to have there performances recorded and recognised should be held to a standard. Poor audio, no matter how good the performance, is still a bad product. Those who would still purchase sub-standard audio quality recordings and rank that product highly are not doing the industry or the band justice. Demand better and we will get it, settle for less and that's what you'll get. |

| Knew of Chris Botti, but this made me a fan Feb 1, 2010 |
I purchased this Blu-ray from this site before the holidays and will confirm that it is of the highest quality. Perhaps the best review I can give is that my wife and I have watched it at least 6 times together and it has such good parts that we've shared it with friends when they are over for the evening. A lot of my friends are musicians, so the evening turns into "You have to see the drum solo on the last song," or "There's a part where Josh Groban messes up Sting's lyrics during a duet with Sting in the bonus features!"
* Performance
- My faves are Josh Groban, Sting, Steven Tyler, and in general, Chris Botti, his band, and the Boston Pops. Wow. So good.
* Video quality
- Not only does it sound amazing, but as a musician, I really appreciate the long, detailed camera shots of Chris Botti's 4-piece band. Drums, bass, guitar, and piano. These players are not only technically fantastic, but they are so expressive when they perform. It takes the show to a whole new level, and I much prefer it compared to David Foster's Blu-ray where the band is mostly darkened near the back of the stage. Looks great on my 54" Panasonic G-10 Plasma. I'm using a PS3 to play the Blu-ray.
* Audio
- I currently only have 2.1 audio, but the mix sounds good to my ears. It certainly is quality enough to be made a live, audio-only CD album. |

| Chris Botti in Boston (Blu-Ray) Jan 24, 2010 |
Bought this after watching this concert on PBS.
Chris Botti's and his guests performance in this concert are excellent.
I did not know much about Chris Botti until now. His playing of the trumpet is truly amazing.
I highly recommend it. |
