- "Mark Whitfield"
Mark Whitfield graduated from Boston's prestigious Berklee College of Music, the world's foremost institute for the study of Jazz and modern American music, in the Spring of 1987 having studied composition and arranging as well as all styles of guitar performance. Upon graduation, he returned to his native New York to embark on a career as a jazz guitarist that afforded him the opportunity to collaborate with many legendary artists including Dizzy Gillespie, Art Blakey, Clark Terry, Jimmy Smith, Carmen McCrae, Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones, Jack McDuff, Betty Carter, Shirley Horn, Ray Charles, Gladys Knight, Burt Bacharach, Joe Williams, Wynton Marsalis, Bradford Marsalis, Stanley Turrentine and his greatest teacher and mentor George Benson.
Along the way, the New York Times dubbed Whitfield "The Best Young Guitarist in the Business" and in September of 1990 Warner Bros. released his solo debut, "The Marksman". The success of this release has led to a recording career that has produced 14 solo projects to date and a myriad of collaborative efforts with some of the most important artists in recent years; Sting, D'Angelo, Mary J. Blige, Chaka Khan, John Mayer, Jill Scott, Roy Hargrove, Diana Krall, Lauryn Hill, Sy Smith and Chris Botti.
In September of 2005, Mark Whitfield accepted the invitation to join the faculty at his alma mater, teaming up with Joe Lovano, Ralph Peterson, Danilo Perez, and Terry Lynn Carrington as "Artists in Residence" at the Berklee School.
While maintaining a teaching schedule that requires his presence on campus 1 day a week for 14 weeks/per semester, and a touring schedule that includes at least 100 concert dates/per year with trumpeter Chris Botti, Whitfield still manages to remain active as a solo artist and 2008-2009 will see the release of his latest solo effort; a Stevie Wonder tribute entitled "Songs Of Wonder" and 2 collaborative projects with long time friends Christian McBride and Nicholas Payton.

Hello their, I have always enjoy mr. Mark jazz music, it always takes me away, once I see my old classmates from the southern university jazz ensemble. My boy Donald Edward and Jorge Fontenette, yes it’s been years, I wonder on what they doing now?
Yes glory to god, it’s good to see this once again
This is music at its finest! It’s the culmination of thousands of hours of practice, fueled by a deep love of music.
Awesome Guitar play
Seeing this great music video of mark Whitfield and Donald Edward on drums and George Fontenette. It bring back remembering when I was at southern university jazz band, along with George Fontenette, andDonald Edwards. I enjoyed play jazz music with these great musicians as well as mark. Wow this was 11 years ago, can’t believe it, sometime I be thinking, if I would have kept my music playing up, I would have been right behind them. Representing Southern university here in Baton Rouge Louisiana to let the world knows. That I have been thought great jazz music from the greatest jazz artist in the world, and that was the late mr. Alvin Batiste. Yes it is a blessing to see this once again
That was greatttttttt🎸💯

Every now and again I tend to find an artist by chance. In this case its the incredible Mark Whitfield! After listening to this man play I am just astonished. I mean I had heard his music years on Smooth Jazz radio,but he just sounded like everyone else. But,after listening to this song he is anything but!! What a great musician, comparable to the great George Benson. Great work Mark!! I can't wait to see you live!
Incredible sound! That´s really smooth jazz!

Please continue to hold. Your call will be answered in the order it was received.
In that case I'd call just to hold. He plays through those changes smooth as silk with no fuzz or distortion to hide mistakes. (Which is why I use fuzz and distortion :) so I know what's up!)
💖❤🧡💗💖
BAD BOY
I’m not trying to be funny when I ask this, but has his music been played on the Weather Channel? I feel like they’ve played this in the background while showing local forecasts.
What album did South Street Funk come from?
yeah the guitarist isn't bad either, tee he he. Everyone Very nice sound, Thank you
D De onde veio este? extraterreste uaua
👍
oh wow...i love it, mark is truly amazing and that band is beyond insane!...side note, did i her a bad note (maybe the only one) @ 5:15?
stickloaf his playing surpasses our understanding of guitar playing, his in another dimension ... he meant to do that
"There are no bad notes...only advanced harmonies." -Jimi Hendrix
Without soul bad feeling

Are you sure that's Scott Kreitzer? I know Scott and he's a saxophone player. Unless this guy's name is also Scott Kreitzer.
What happened to mark look like he lost his innocence looking so worldly and prideful hope hes not on drugs

Way too many great American musician are under-rated and kept out of the mainstream and are unadvertised.
But we have taylor swift! Every "song" is a top hit! Shes just that good. For 15 straight year. 6 billion people on earth and shes the one!!!!
Nobody’s kept out of the mainstream. The mainstream provides what the mainstream wants. Hence pop artists totally populate the mainstream because pop is short for popular, and what is popular is lowest common denominator. All musicians, genres and forms of music get exactly the exposure they deserve, because the higher the art form, the fewer the people who can appreciate it. Jazz is a minority music and, like all other forms of music, it will get exactly the exposure it warrants, according to how many bums it puts on seats.
The trumpet mic sounds too low..😮
경박한...사운드랄까요...
오옹
No jazz artist dances as much as Whitfield. That's probably why his solos are so nodworthy.
LOL
What's with all these theatrics... Just play man...
Too much body movement makes jazz lines imperfect ..
Too much show. Off...
