Saxophonist Angela Davis's debut album is The Art of The Melody (2013). In this interview, Davis talks about her Australian roots; why she's most interested in the lineage of players such as Lee Konitz, with whom she's studied; melodic improvisation; and how to approach songs from outside the jazz canon.
