This Valentine’s Day, it seems appropriate that jazz trumpeter Chris Botti would perform live in the District for the myriad fans that will fill the Kennedy Center. Botti, whose 2004 CD, “When I Fall In Love” skyrocketed him to fame as the largest-selling American instrumental artist, is as candid as his talent is genuine.

“I would not be playing the trumpet had it not been for Miles Davis playing ‘My Funny Valentine,'” he said.
