Chris Botti is coming back to Poland! Following the success of last year’s tour, one of the world’s most popular instrumentalists announces five autumn concerts across Poland!

A Grammy winner, top jazz chart artist, and recipient of numerous gold, platinum, and diamond records, Botti has performed alongside musical legends and with symphony orchestras on many prestigious stages.

In October 2025, the artist will perform in the most beautiful concert halls of Katowice, Bielsko-Biała, Poznań, Wrocław, and Warsaw. During these five concerts in Poland, fans will hear, among others, tracks from his first album in over a decade, “Vol. 1.”

For nearly three decades, the American trumpeter has collaborated with the biggest stars: Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin, Sting, Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett, Steven Tyler, Andrea Bocelli, and Herbie Hancock. Botti has performed in Poland many times, including during important historical events for the country — for example, in a special show inaugurating Poland’s presidency of the European Union, and he also played the hejnał (traditional bugle call) from the tower of St. Mary’s Church in Kraków. Moreover, the artist has often emphasized that, besides Miles Davis, Tomasz Stańko has been a huge inspiration for him.

Chris Botti has released eight solo albums. His autumn 2023 album Vol. 1 (Blue Note Records) marks, in many ways, a new beginning for the trumpeter. “I turned 60 in 2022, a time that felt like a reset for so many things in the world,” says Botti. “I wanted to strip away all the orchestral arrangements and special guests to focus more on my playing, my band’s playing, and those jazz classics we always love to perform on stage,” the artist adds.

The album was produced by legendary David Foster, a 16-time Grammy Award winner whose impressive list of achievements includes collaborations with musicians from the iconic band The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Diana Krall, Madonna, Herbie Hancock, Aretha Franklin, and Dolly Parton.

The concerts are organized by the Poznań-based concert agency Good Taste Production. Event regulations: www.goodtaste.pl/regulamin.
