about
"[Me Deixe Em Paz], was recorded in Sao Paulo in a relaxed session that also includes Rodrigo Rodrigues's soulful vocals and jazz harmonica. Rodrigues duets with the velvety Monica Salmaso on the subtly churning opening medley, with Nolet weaving around them, adding poignant grace to their conversation. (Nolet) has a warm, lyrical tone that's refreshingly squeal-free... superb" (Also featured: Celio Barro: Bass, Adriano Buskos: Percussion, Luiz Carlos De Paula: Bateria.)
-- AllMusic
"Nolet displays passion, cunning eclecticism, and heretofore hidden depths and reaches...(he) chews off strong personalities from jazz history and recasts there messages through a personal, complex lyricism that is by turns, both sweet and pained."
-- The Stranger
Nolet’s jazz Identity took shape in the workshops, studios and clubs of New York, where his work in mainstream, bop and Latin music circles ensured development of a jazz foundation that is both solid and diverse. Since the early 2000's however, Nolet sustained his artistic focus on Brazilian jazz and world music influences, composing, arranging, performing and recording in Sao Paulo as well as studying Brazilian percussion. Arco Voz's core ensemble is generally viola/violin, cello, double bass with traditional percussion and delicate vocals.
