- Ernesto Lechner, Los Angeles Times

''...Brazilian Carnaval 2003 took over on Saturday night to celebrate with a wildly extravagant music party...Hot, hot samba on a chilly L.A. evening... ... the sequined and feathered Made in Brazil dancers, vigorously demonstrating the correct way to do the samba...
- Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times

"... Samba, batucada, percussion... the Brazilian energy is back to reafirm the bonds of multiculturalism...espectacular, and colourful presentation of the musical Brazilian culture in the city of Los Angeles..."
- Jose Fuentes, Salinas, La Opinion

"Carnaval 2003 brings out thousands, and reaffirms its universal appeal to the celebration of life... Carnaval came to Los Angeles last Saturday, and judging strictly by the multitudes of cheering, jumping fans that came out to see and hear three bands perform the music of Brazil that so many around the workld have come to love, it was an enormous success"
- Gary Walker, Weekly Press L.A.
