Ron Carter Sextet: Houston Person (saxo tenor), Stephen Scott (piano), Bill Frisell (guitarra), Ron Carter (contrabajo), Payton Crossley (batería), Steve Kroon (percusión).

"The great Ron Carter continues his intermittent love affair with Brazilian music, joined by a somewhat unlikely cast of characters. Guitarist Bill Frisell delivers yet another of his superb sideman performances, including a pinpoint harmonic dissection of "Goin' Home," Carter's bossa nova adaptation of Dvorak's "New World Symphony." The sonic blend of Frisell's guitar, Houston Person's tenor saxophone, and Stephen Scott's piano is consistently delightful, especially on the melody of Carter's "Por-Do-Sol." All three soloists turn in excellent performances on the three remaining Carter originals, "Saudade," "Obrigado," and "1:17 Special," as well as two Luiz Bonfa tunes from the film Black Orpheus, "Manha de Carnaval" and "Samba de Orfeu." Carter's melody statement and solo on the latter are his only steps into the spotlight; otherwise, he remains in a rhythmic support role, along with drummer Payton Crossley and percussionist Steve Kroon.
This record could have been merely one more Latin-themed album by an American jazz musician. But creative production choices and fantastic musicianship make it artistically solid and uncommonly beautiful." David R. Adler (allmusic.com)

"My record of import is one I heard in 1962 when I heard the melody played by Yusef Lateef on oboe. I later found out the record he made on this disc was called "Goin' Home" which is one of the movements from a Dvorak Symphony. So I went out and bought the disc—that would have to be done by Leonard Bernstein and The New York Philharmonic when they do the four movements of the Dvorak New World Symphony—and among these four movements is that melody called "Goin' Home."
The story is that Antonin Dvorak came to the States—to New York, heard some blues people and went back to his hometown in Europe and wrote this melody -we call it "Goin' Home." I've since recorded it on a record of mine call Orfeu. It's a great view of a classical melody interpreted by jazz musicians who are always -going home." Ron Carter (At home, New York City, 01.04.2014)
