Last year, Otmaro Ruiz was honored with a GRAMMY NOMINATION for his arrangement of "Girl from Ipanema" (Garota de Ipanema), timeless Jobim classic. This year, his arrangement of yet another Jobim classic, "Águas De Março" (Waters of March), has been added as official entry in the 59th Grammy Awards,, in a total new and modern incarnation (Best Arrangement Instruments and Vocals). A brand new original arrangement of Coltrane's "Giant Steps" is also an official entry in the category "Best Arrangement Instrumental or A Capella".

We are very happy to announce that Otmaro Ruiz has made it onto the Official Ballot for the 59th Annual GRAMMY AWARDS, under many other fields. If you're a voting member of NARAS, I hope you'll consider us in the following categories:

Best Arrangement, Instrumentals and Vocals: Aguas de Março (Jobim) and Don't let me be lonely tonight (James Taylor)

Best arrangement, instrumental or a capella: Giant Steps, Stolen Moments and Mambo Inn

Best improvised Jazz Solo: Stolen Moments and In the Game
