Here’s some fun Brazilian music brought to you by bassist/vocalist Gabriel Espinosa along with vibes and harmonica man Hendrik Meirkens, who seems to have been bred to samba. You get some lively teamwork here as well, as Anat Cohen brings her lovely clarinet to “A Song For Ray” and warm tenor to “Give Me Five.” Antonio Sanchez propels the team behind Meurkins’ harmonica and melds with the vibes on an exciting “Euro 12” and “Ocean Lights.” Some wonderful vocals are provided by Alison Wedding as she teams up with Espinosa on “Samba Little Samba” and she does wonders on her own on “A Night In Jakarta.” Tierney Sutton makes a cameo appearance on a hip take of “Besame Mucho” that almost brings down the house. A fun night in Rio!
