The Vermont Jazz Center is excited to present a live stream concert with pianist Emmet Cohen, his working trio and special guest guitarist, Mark Whitfield.

Mark Whitfield’s guitar playing is influenced by his years with organists Jimmy Smith and Brother Jack McDuff; he has appeared on over 200 recordings as a sideman and released 12 as a leader. 

A concert with Cohen and Whitfield promises to be swinging, funky and soulful, with reverence for the tradition and an eye towards the future.
