Description
Aaron Parks Little Big, the new Ropeadope album from the acclaimed
pianist, keyboardist and composer, is at once the culmination of his
brilliant early career and the long-awaited follow-up to his Blue Note
Records debut, Invisible Cinema. That 2008 release, with its gorgeously
melodic writing and improvising and deft use of indie-rock, electronica
and hip-hop elements, established Parks as one of the most gifted
and original young voices in jazz. This is the natural successor to that
record, says the New York-based artist, 34. Its taking the ideas of that
project and doubling down on themfully committing to that direction.
