On Dança dos Desastrados, every note, every beat has a melodic perspective in mind. This is not a new thing for Miguel Ângelo. The bassist has a talent for establishing epic dialogues on the strength of his flowing melodic statements. His Porto, Portugal-based quartet with alto saxophonist João Guimarães, pianist Joaquim Rodrigues, and drummer Marcos Cavaleiro is a go-to for those of you who can’t get enough of the Brian Blade Fellowship—or any musician with a similar approach to a melody.
