PONTEIO JE4 SC/PTS

This Brazilian favorite from the 1960s has been recorded by a variety of artists including composer Edu Lobo, Astrud Gilberto, Sergio Mendes, and Woody Herman. The appealing style lends itself here to a masterful treatment for full jazz ensemble by Eric Richards. The flowing melody moves seamlessly from section to section supported by the infection groove. Solo space is open for any player.
