  "The phrase 'less is more' is part of my philosophy," Parker says, "and it's very logical for me. All the other types of music that have influenced me, apart from jazz, have helped me appreciate the importance of structure and concept." From MetroActive.
• Review of Awakening.
  "The man can do more with two bowls and a little baton than your average jazz drummer with a full kit in front of him." From 52nd Street Jazz.
• Review of Awakening.
  "Indeed, one can say of Awakening that it is a nondidactic sound tract expressing love and devotion to that higher force through the joyful sound of music. One thing is certain, Leon Parker is a seeker whose tireless quest for musical perfection cannot be questioned, only admired." From MetroActive.
• Review of Awakening.
  "Parker is joined by other percussionists, the occasional saxophone and flute, and at times some very, very ethereal vocals to produce an album that is hypnotic and engaging." From PauseRecord.
