I had tons of favorites but his duet with Steven Tyler singing "Smile" is so fun to watch, maybe because the two-shot of them playing together is fantastically incongruous. Chris' version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" is so hauntingly beautiful I cry every time I hear it.
He remained calm even when, mid-song, a guy in the second row had a heart attack!! Apparently he lived (watch his hilarious intv. He's confident and funny, and like all great performers, he takes your hand and navigates you seamlessly through the show. Chris is a commanding presence on stage even when surrounded by stellar-stars like Sting, Steven Tyler, Yo-yo Ma, John Mayer and the sexy Katherine McPhee. I love that artists are putting out CD/DVDs!!! Listening to Chris Botti's music is divine but watching him play is divin-est-I know thats not a real word but you get the idea :). A front row seat to the best concert of the year.
