Breaking news!

Manila, Philippines -  Radio High 105.9 brings back Grammy-winning trumpet master Chris Botti for a one-night performance at the Resorts World Manila’s Newport Performing Arts Theater on June 19.

After a magnificent live gig which formally launched Radio High 105.9 at the Greenbelt Fashion Walk last Nov. 4, Botti is set to reclaim the Manila stage with an all-new repertoire, plus a few fresh faces in his band line-up. The concert crowd will also be warmed up by a pre-event show featuring jazz vocalists Richard Merk and Verni Varga.

Hailed as the largest selling American jazz instrumental artist, Botti has amassed a following in the adult contemporary market for developing a unique and signature fusion sound. His decades-long career has seen him sharing the stage with music greats like Sting, Paul Simon, Steven Tyler, Yo Yo Ma, John Mayer, Michael Bublé and Josh Groban, and collaborating with legends such as Frank Sinatra, Joni Mitchell, Aretha Franklin, Mark Knopfler, Andrea Bocelli, Herbie Hancock, David Foster and Natalie Cole. He has been nominated for five Grammy Awards and sold over three million albums to date, from his groundbreaking 1995 debut album First Wish, to his latest anthology dubbed Impressions under Sony Records.

The second staging of Chris Botti Live In Manila! will benefit the Young Musicians Development Organization (YMDO), and is presented by Globe Telecoms and Resorts World Manila.
