Piano accordion playing.
As a piano accordionist Parise does not compare with others that have been seen in the past, but at a salary to suit, he fills in acceptably in an early spot on small time bills. His repertoire consists of classical and rag numbers, the latter badly done. His playing is off key at times, but this did not seem to affect the manner in which the Roof audience liked him.
