I'm sure all of you trumpet fans have heard of
Chris Botti. If you've never heard or seen him, you really are in for a treat. He made his debut
with the Boston Pops back in Sept.'08 and taped a concert for PBS' Annual Pledge Drive. It's being aired again this month. If you can squeeze in any time at all, this is a MUST WATCH concert - check your local listings -- make sure to at least record it. He is an incredible musician. You really have to see him perform.
AND.... guess what else? He was Mr. Kelly's trumpet teacher. We'll have to get some details!!Here's a sampling...
OMG could you just die at 4:44 - IS HE AMAZING OR WHAT!!!

Any instrument well played will open my heart, but only the heavenly scream of a trumpet will rapture my Soul
