"Vince Mendoza is one of those arrangers who has introduced new, subtle voicings, and Luciana Souza is one of the few singers who has ably moved between singing with both symphonies and contemporary jazz orchestras. Given those credentials, it should be no surprise that combining them with the WDR Big Band Cologne - a frequent vehicle for Mendoza's arranging - and a broad selection of Brazilian compositions would yield impressive results".
