“The universal appeal of Brazilian jazz is how measured, melodic emotion is energized from within by subtle, invincible rhythm. Da Fonseca may be the best in the world at motivating and sustaining that special vital pulse.” Thomas Conrad – JazzTimes
“Alves’ work melds a percussive edge with a lively, fluent right hand…”John Ephland – Downbeat Magazine
“Alves plays with a gravity and a stylistic flair that’s truly impressive.”
Phillip Van Vleck, Billboard Magazine
