Chris Botti Live in Manila 2016 Featuring Sting

Chris Botti is a trumpeter and composer of American jazz and smooth jazz, whose albums have been nominated several times for Grammy Awards, and has managed, with three of them, reach # 1 in the charts Jazz Billboard Top 200.

Botti plays a Martin Committee large bore Handcraft trumpet made in 1939, and uses a No. 3 silver plated mouthpiece from Bach made in 1926, having recently retired his 1920 3C Bach mouthpiece. He uses a Leblanc Vacchiano Harmon mute from the 1950s.

He was born in Portland, Oregon and raised in Corvallis, although he also spent two years of his childhood growing up in Italy. His earliest musical influence was his mother, a classically trained pianist and part-time piano teacher. He started playing the trumpet at nine-years-old, and committed to the instrument at age 12 when he heard Miles Davis play "My Funny Valentine".


Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner, better known as Sting, is a musician British initially served as bassist, and later as singer and bassist of the band The Police.

As a member of The Police and as a solo artist, Sting has sold over one hundred million records, has received more than sixteen Grammy Awards for his work, receiving the first for "best rock instrumental performance" in 1981, and obtained a nomination for the Academy Award for "Best Song".
