Aaron Parks’ Invisible Cinema, Blue Note Records (2008)
Pianist Aaron Parks’ 2008 Blue Note debut album, Invisible Cinema, was a groundbreaking record which foreshadowed a new era of modern jazz to come.
Drawing upon elements of folk, pop and classical music, Invisible Cinema features uniquely cinematic (pun intended) soundscapes taking the listener through an imaginary movie score.
Featuring a stellar cast of current jazz greats, namely Mike Moreno on guitar, Matt Penman on bass, and Eric Harland on drums, Invisible Cinema is a modern masterpiece well worth a listen to this day.
