MIKE PARKER TRIO returns to Moszkva, Oradea!
Mike Parker- double bass, compositions
Marcin Kaletka- tenor saxophone
Maksymilian Olszewski- drums
Mike Parker Trio is the newest project by the native New York bassist and composer. Parker’s music has been described by JazzPRESS magazine as ”a brilliant symbiosis of all musical genres… It is all that jazz should be: original, fresh,
unpredictable, symbiotic in group improvisation, and all that with a sense of humor.’ All About Jazz writes ‘For an all-acoustic jazz unit this band transmits an electrifying presence… Parker and associates produce music that is meaningful and inspiring. His compositions draw on such wide-ranging influences as Charles Mingus, Radiohead, Maurice Ravel, The Bad Plus, Led Zeppelin, John Coltrane, David Bowie and hip- hop legends A Tribe Called Quest just to name a few.
Parker will be joined by Marcin Kaletka and Maksymilian Olszewski, musicians he has known and collaborated with in various projects over the past decade. The trio performed throughout 2024 and 2025 appearing on stage in Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Czechia, and Poland. 2026 will take them to Greece, Estonia, Romania, Lithuania and nearly every country in
between. Their repertoire includes mostly Parker’s original compositions.
