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."  « Less
