Allmusic[2]

Thom Jurek of Allmusic said "Despite the kaleidoscopic ambition of Infinito, and its sometimes frenetic pace, the album is quite accessible, and a pleasure to listen to and indulge in. If only most popular music, Brazilian or otherwise, were this colorful and exciting. This is another winner in a catalog full of them".[2] On All About Jazz Joel Roberts commented that "Infinito is a joyous, carnival-like treat for listeners who appreciate music without boundaries".[3]
