Chris Botti rose to fame as a crackerjack session and touring trumpeter for the likes of Sting, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Paul Simon, and Natalie Merchant. A trained jazz musician, Botti's solo albums evoke a cool-jazz persona similar to Chet Baker, while his use of superstar guest-vocalists ensures Botti a place in the pop charts. Botti released TO LOVE AGAIN in 2005, a sequel to his popular 2004 duets album WHEN I FALL IN LOVE.

Botti accompanies Dean Martin on a performance originally recorded in 1957, 'I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face'. Botti recorded this track at Capitol Studios in the same room as Dean Martin recorded his vocals. There is also a duet with Paula Cole 'The Very Thought Of You'. 'Ave Maria' includes a 60-piece choir. Finally, on 'Nessun Dorma' classical elements take over from the jazz, demonstrating the diversity of styles and textures Botti so cleverly utilises. The song Italia features Andrea Bocelli.
