Claudio Parra Pizarro (born September 14, 1945 in Viña del Mar) is a Chilean musician, pianist, and composer.

He moved from the accordion to the piano, an instrument that would characterize his work in the group's most glorious years, and that would define an important part of his distinctive sound.

However his influence is more noticeable in progressive works such as those heard in: "Obras de Violeta Parra" from 1984 and in his piano centric composition "Elqui", which appears on the album: Mamalluca.

Within the band, he is the inveterate collector, the one in charge of keeping the updated archive of the concerts and recordings of Los Jaivas, as well as the memories and the scores.

Due to his sociable nature, he is the member of the group that has given the most interviews to the press, and in recent years he has been in charge of presenting the songs at concerts.
