Chris Botti-Italia
- 17 years ago
With his new album, Chris Botti pays tribute to Italy and its music with a vibrant and sensual
set of performances drawn from sources ranging from classical opera to the soundtracks of
Ennio Morricone. Recorded in Los Angeles, London, and Rome, Italia is a brilliant showcase
for Botti's musical versatility as performer, composer and collaborator. The album includes
the newly composed title track featuring the passionate vocals of renowned Italian tenor
Andrea Bocelli as well as a new interpretation of "The Very Thought of You" with guest vocalist
Paula Cole. In another of the album's duets, Botti adds sublime and sensitive details to
Dean Martin's vocals, originally recorded in 1957, on an emotionally-resonant version of
"I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face," a song first written for "My Fair Lady."
