AllMusic 4/5 stars

Do the Bossa Nova with Herbie Mann (subtitled Recorded in Rio de Janeiro with the Greatest Bossa Nova Players) is an album by American jazz flautist Herbie Mann recorded in 1962 for the Atlantic label.

AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars with its review by Scott Yanow stating "Rather than play a watered-down version of bossa nova in New York studios (which was becoming quite common as the bossa nova fad hit its peak in 1962), flutist Herbie Mann went down to Brazil and recorded with some of the top players of the style. ...the music is as much Brazilian as it is jazz. This "fusion" works quite well".
