"This CD is the culmination of Nilson Matta's lifelong dream: to record his interpretation of the Orpheus music from the Brazilian play and movie of the 1950s. To make it happen, Matta enlisted fifteen superb players from Brazil and the United States, building his ensemble up from the rhythmic, native heart of the music. The result is a stunning accomplishment".

"Reimagining classic works can yield dicey results, because the refurbished version will always be measured against the original. But Nilson Matta's wistful take on the 1959 movie soundtrack 'Black Orpheus' works to his advantage".
