"Outstanding album by the quintet of trumpeter Sebastián Jordán, tenor saxophonist
Melissa Aldana, guitarist Nicolás Vera, bassist Pablo Menares and drummer Félix
Lecaros. Melodies as thick as clouds and as limitless in the imagery their loveliness
incites. Recorded live at January 2015 performance at the Thelonious Jazz Club, the
sounds from the crowd and the city bleed into the audio, which, in fact, just add to the
personableness of the recording and the intimacy of the music. The up-tempo tunes
are all you could ask for if you’re looking for a thrilling ride, but it’s when this
ensemble patiently works through a tune that it bleeds all kinds of feel
