Musicians Ricardo Pinheiro and Miguel Amado have a trajectory of almost two decades on the forefront of the Portuguese jazz scene, having recorded dozens of albums and participated in major festivals.

But not just that, as both musicians have also collaborated with each other in the past: Amado in “Song Form” (2013) by Ricardo Pinheiro, and Pinheiro in “The Long Rest” (2016) by Miguel Amado. They also shared the “Triology” project with Bruno Pedroso, which led to a CD with the same name being released in 2014.

In 2020, they went on to edit “LAB”, a project led by the musicians themselves and created from scratch, playing their own compositions, and to which they invited two impressive members of the new generation of musicians: Tomás Marques on the saxophone and Diogo Alexandre on drums, Young Musicians 2019 prize winners in the Jazz category.

The music produced by the quartet is marked by the character of the compositions and the energy with which the musicians interact with each other.
