Much in demand as both leader and sideman, Mark works in a wide variety of musical settings including jazz, big band, classical, shows and recording sessions on clarinet and saxophone.
Mark is a member of the award-winning Back to Basie Orchestra and the celebrated John Wilson Orchestra, with which he has played regularly at the BBC Proms. He has performed with artists ranging from Tony Bennett to Sir Simon Rattle, Lady Gaga to Dame Cleo Laine at venues from Ronnie Scott's in London to the Lincoln Center in New York.
Currently Mark is enjoying playing in Jazz At The Movies with singer Joanna Eden, Salud Tom Jobim! with Georgia Mancio and with his own quartet in concerts around the UK. Mark Crooks always gets great reactions for his performances on clarinet and on tenor sax: 'luscious sound and apparently effortless phrasing'; 'a big, warm, engaging tone'; 'gorgeous, liquid and elegant.' Gabriel Latchin has 'a particular crispness in his playing and a lucidity that grips the attention' and 'explores every niche of the melody.'
