"Duduka is a fantastic drummer, he has worked with me and I love the way he plays." Antonio Carlos Jobim, Rio de Janeiro, Spring 94 "Guitarist Romero Lubambo may be the best practitioner of his craft in the world today... [his] facility, creativity and energy are in a class all their own." — Jazziz "Master musician' is the term that comes to mind when discussing trumpeter, flugelhornist and composer Claudio Roditi' —Zan Stewart, Star-Ledger "[Alves has] subtlety, musicianship an extraordinary improvisational facility.." "...outstanding capabilities as a melodic improviser..." Robert L. Doerschuk, DownBeat Magazine "Maucha and I have travelled the world with the Banda Nova since 1984. She is a marvellous singer. Her voice is deep, rich, mysterious. It makes me long for the Brazilian forest. Maucha is intelligent and comes from a very musical family. She is a good girl, wonderful woman, a great artist." Kiss from your fan, Antonio Carlos Jobim "When the bassist (Hans Glawischnig) emerges from the shadows with his solo, it's so well framed and bursting with color you find yourself wishing he'd ride out the track with it, though he's smart enough not to. "Jahira" is a textbook lesson in how to make so little feel like so much." Jeff Tamarkim, Jazztimes "Two outstanding qualities characterize Vic Juris' playing. One is his embodiment of the jazz tradition, while always stretching his scope and reaching for new possibilities and concepts." Victor L.
