Waves of thunderous applause split the solemn air that usually prevails at Wangfujing Catholic Church on Oct 11 when world-renowned US trumpeter Chris Botti made his Beijing debut.
The four-time Billboard chart-topping trumpet player recently won a Grammy for his 2012 album Impressions. His music presents "the softer side of luminosity, the realm of sunsets and half-moons", said a review in the New York Times.
Botti and his band entertained Chinese jazz lovers with his signature songs including When I Fall in Love, The Very Thought of You and a rendition of Puccini's Nessun Dorma.
