Reception

Writing for AllMusic, music critic Scott Yanow wrote of the album: "Pass plays warm solos on a variety of Brazilian tunes. Highlights include three songs by Antônio Carlos Jobim (including 'Corcovado' and 'Wave'), Deodato's 'Tears,' and Luiz Bonfa's 'The Gentle Rain.' A melodic and infectious date".
