Paulinho Trompete gives a swinging solo while drummer Christian Oyens hits hard on a rich take of Duke Ellington\u2019s \u201cCaravan\u201d while Polson melds reeds together for a rich flavor for Dr. Osamu Kitajima\u2019s koto on \u201cFor de Lis\u201d. Polson\u2019s soprano is gorgeous on Passeio de Bicicleta\u201d while he creates some thick reeds on a festive take of Ivan Lins\u2019 \u201cLeva e Traz\u201d. The team gets funky to Assumpcao\u2019s basswork on \u201cMariana\u201d and the team punches like a middleweight to Azur McCall\u2019s scat solo on&nbsp; \u201cIncompativilidade de Genios\u201d.&nbsp; Wonderful sounds of festive streets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jazzweekly.com\/2021\/03\/kenney-polson-colors-of-brazil-kari\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.jazzweekly.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>POSTED BY: George W.
