Evan Shaw Parker (born 5 April 1944 in Bristol) is a British free-improvising saxophone player from the European free jazz scene.
Recording and performing prolifically with many collaborators, Parker was a pivotal figure in the development of European free jazz and free improvisation, and has pioneered or substantially expanded an array of extended techniques. late-60s free jazz and distinctive playing. Critic Ron Wynn[1] describes Parker as “mong Europe’s most innovative and intriguing saxophonists … his solo sax work isn’t for the squeamish.”
Influences
His original inspiration was Paul Desmond, and in recent years the influence of cool jazz saxophone players has again become apparent in his music — there are tributes to Warne Marsh and Lee Konitz on Time Will Tell (ECM, 1993) and Chicago Solo (Okkadisk, 1997).
Later work
Parker is better known, however, for his later work, which rapidly assimilated the American avantgarde — John Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, Albert Ayler and others — and forged his own, instantly identifiable style. His music of the 1960s and 1970s is harsh, raw and unsettling, involving fluttering, swirling lines that have shape rather than tangible melodic content; sometimes he makes use of pure sound in a manner that recalls Steve Lacy’s more radical 1970s recordings or the work of some AACM members. He began to develop methods of rapidly layering harmonics and false notes to create dense contrapuntal weaves; these involved experiments with plastic reeds, circular breathing and rapid tonguing which initially were so intense that he would find blood dripping onto the floor from the saxophone.

Recently caught Evan Parker with Tom Jenkinson (Squarepusher) over at the Queen Elizabeth Hall and it was, in my opinion, outstanding. Well worth the 90 minute wait in case a returns ticket became available. Had never heard of Evan Parker before (been out of the scene for a few years), and was greatly impressed. Awesome gig.
