 her Indo Latin Jazz Quintet\n\nFeaturing Mariah Parker (composer, piano, 
 santur) and a stellar lineup of musicians including including Grammy award 
 winning woodwind virtuoso Paul McCandless (known through his work with the 
 seminal chamber jazz groups Paul Winter Consort and Oregon), trailblazing 
 guitarist Matthew Montfort (Ancient Future), bassist and cellist Kash 
 Killion (Sun Ra Arkestra, Cecil Taylor); and Indian tabla/jazz drum set 
 pioneer Sameer Gupta (Marc Cary, VidyA, Chitresh Das, Anindo 
 Chatterjee).\n\nBack By Popular Demand at Yoshi's Jazz Club, Jack London 
 Square, Monday, April 19, 8 pm\n\n“Mariah Parker's Indo Latin Jazz 
 Ensemble packed Yoshi's in Jack London Square, and the incredible live 
 performance had the audience roaring and screaming for more of the 
 Indo-Latin jazz rhythms filling the celebrated jazz club during the CD 
 release event for Mariah Parker's debut recording, 'Sangria.' Blending the 
 asymmetrical meters of East India with the driving syncopations of Latin 
 jazz to create a fresh new sound, Parker draws musical inspiration from 
 Cuba, Brazil, India and Spain. The concert goers were so spirited and 
 enthusiastic as the performance progressed throughout the evening, the roar 
 of their response to Mariah Parker's compositions brought the jazz club to 
 a feverish pitch that rocked the building to its foundation.” - Lynda 
 Carson, BERKELEY DAILY PLANET\n\nMariah Parker and her Indo Latin Jazz 
 Quintet\n\nMariah Parker's debut recording on Ancient-Future.Com Records, 
 Sangria, features her original compositions that draw musical inspiration 
 from Brazil, Cuba, Spain, and India. Her Indo Latin Jazz Ensemble 
 accompanies her and includes musicians from the bands Ancient Future, 
 Oregon, Sun Ra, and Herbie Hancock's Headhunters.\n\nSangria received 
 airplay on over 385 New World, Jazz, and Latin radio programs. The 
 recording has earned 76 media and chart placements including two songs on 
 the Smooth Jazz Now Top 100 Songs of 2009 Chart and rave reviews such as 
 the following:\n\n“Parker and friends blend the rhythmic syncopations of 
 Latin jazz music with the entrancing, asymmetrical meters of East Indian 
 rhythms resulting in first-class world music. Intriguing melodies that draw 
 musical inspirations from the tempos of Brazil, Cuba, India, and Spain make 
 for an uplifting serene yet passionate musical journey into an ideal 
 world.” — LATIN BEAT MAGAZINE\n\n“Dazzling debut.... Parker’s 
 subtle and sensuous sounds reflect exotic flavors of India, the Middle East 
 and Latin America.” — PALO ALTO DAILY NEWS\n\n“Although entirely 
 instrumental, Sangria speaks. Maybe it's the technical virtuosity abounding 
 in the multiplicity of sounds - in the santur or sarangi, or the tabla or 
 timbales. Maybe it's in the emotive resonance of what's behind the sounds, 
 like the longing of separation in "Between the Lines," where Parker's 
 fingers dance across the keys in precise, measured movements, in graceful 
 arching and sweeping strokes, or in the spectacle of wonder in "Debajo De 
 La Lluvia" or the "Tenth Journey." Whatever it is, Parker's Sangria is a 
 lively, adventurous exploration into a hybrid global identity.” — LEO 
 WEEKLY\n\n“Parker brings a wide variety of influences to Sangria, ranging 
 from Indian and Middle Eastern music to Afro-Cuban salsa and Brazilian 
 samba. She obviously appreciates the Eastern-influenced spirituality and 
 mysticism of John Coltrane, Yusef Lateef, Pharoah Sanders, and Lonnie 
 Liston Smith, but her composing also contains elements of everyone from Pat 
 Metheny to Chick Corea.... Parker, of course, didn't invent the idea of 
 world jazz… but she keeps it moving forward... demonstrating that the 
 fusion of jazz and world music still has plenty of possibilities after all 
 these years -- and a global perspective serves Parker well throughout the 
 rewarding Sangria.” — ALL MUSIC GUIDE\n\n“This collection of eight 
 original instrumentals by Mariah Parker is just one of many examples of the 
 infusion of East Indian music into Western music, but to my ears one of the 
 most successful.” — AUDIOPHILE AUDITION\n\nClick below for a review
