"It shouldn't be surprising that the Washington, DC area, home to Felix Grant and Charlie Byrd, the two men who helped introduce Brazilian music to a wide audience in this country, should produce a group like Bossalingo. What is surprising is that players so young should have such a strong feeling for this music. They sound like they've been playing it all their lives. And what's even more surprising are the arrangements and improvising...This record is truly a pleasant surprise!"
- Tom Cole, WPFW & NPR
"Michael’s improvisations are intelligent explorations of new melodies spun out over often familiar chord changes."
- Alan Greenblatt, The Washington Post
"Bossalingo is one of the best local releases in recent years."
