On paper, trumpeter Chris Botti is another smooth jazz heartthrob, a seasoned session veteran stepping out with his own mix of romantic instrumental pop. But Botti brings more care and nuance to his work than that faux category implies, and this seductive collection underlines his deeper intent in its smoky title song, a collaboration with Paul Buchanan's Scottish neo-pop band, The Blue Nile, that is sufficient excuse for entry: Buchanan's fevered yet restrained vocals answer Botti's cool, Miles-wide horn lines in a classic late-night reverie that is the set's standout, but Botti's own wordless pieces sustain the album's suave, finely crafted mood.

I feel that Chris Botti is a fantastic musician and just love to listen to all his cd's and now that I have the equipment I will be able to listen and watch his DVD's Joyce Maric

Spontaneously had more to say after his "First Wish", and specifies the ambient he is thinking of: at midnight, quietness and warmness to sense with the loved person...
"Midnight Without You" November 27, 2005

This is one of Chris Botti's most remarkable recordings along with "To Love Again," "When I Fall In Love" and "A Thousand Kisses Deep." Mr. Botti is one of the finest jazz musicians America ever produced and he's not only a terrific trumpet player but also a talented composer as well. This recording showcases his creative musical sensibility not only for being an expert on trumpet but also his talent in composing beautiful melodies. On this CD, he composed all the delightful tunes for our listening pleasure. My friends and I will have the pleasure to be at his concert and watch him perform live with his special guests; Sting, Paula Cole, Gladys Knight, Jill Scott, Paul Buchanan, Renee Olstead and Burt Bacharach this coming Friday, December 2nd at the Wilshire Theatre.
You'll love listening to all the great tracks in this wonderful CD, which is a perfect companion for relaxation, for driving and background music for cocktail and dinner parties. To me, the most ear-catching tunes are "Regroovable," "When Rain Falls" and the title track "Midnight Without You" with Paul Buchanan presenting his vocal artistry.
Very highly recommended not only for smooth jazz lovers but also for every one who appreciates fine music and outstanding artists.

Chris Botti's "Midnight Without You" is an elegant moody set that wears well since its 1997 release. "Regroovable" with its perky beat and Botti's insistently cheerful horn sliding over Shawn Pelton's drums is the most instantly accessible. "Until Now" also offers a similar midtempo setting, albeit a bit more in moody territory that offers a pretty Botti melody and keyboard atmospherics. The opener "The Steps of Positano" is dark & moody with a lovely melody. Jonatha Brooke's vocals on "Forgiven" also shimmer and interplay wonderfully with Botti's trumpet, "These are the chances we take, the reasons that we can't explain, follow your heart everyday & pray to be forgiven." "Midnight Without You" is a consistently satisfying set from this excellent master of the trumpet and mood. Enjoy!

I have several of Chris Botti's CDs. This is the best, in my opinion. Magical playing by Chris, and wonderful vocals by Paul Buchanan and Jonatha Brooke. This CD has a lovely melancholy that washes over you like a soothing blanket.
