Multi-faceted New York jazz pianist and composer Chris Parker brings his wide-ranging compositional background to his latest recording, "Full Circle." With a front-line of saxophonist John Nastos and violinist Rob Thomas, bassist Tony Marino, and drummer Marko Marcinko provide Parker's ten originals with inspired grooves ranging from calypso to tango to funk--and several things in between--making for an eclectic, yet unified and engaging album.
