"Trem Do Tempo" (Time Train) will sway you gently on your way to Latin jazz oblivion… I can (easily) see this one winning awards this year....", The JWVIBE: by Jonathan Widran "...Poring over the guest list – which includes natives of Spain, Cuba, France and Brazil – and figuring out who interacts with who when is almost as frolicsome as listening to Pereira's brisk, breezy melodic lines LJN Latin Jazz Net: by Raul da Gama "...Mr Pereira has also taken a leap into the great unknown, so to speak, with music that has complex orchestrations, thereby mixing the traditions of men like Laurindo Almeida and Baden Powell with those of Heitor Villa-Lobos…" The Vinyl Anachronist: "...His guitar is soft yet intricate, full of so many flavors that instantly transport you to the Southern hemisphere..." "...Pereira's compositions and arrangements lean toward the impressionistic, resulting in a sound that envelops you with warmth, vivaciousness and a miraculous gift of seduction..."
