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..."
