Walt Weiskopf

**Walt Weiskopf** () er ein USA-amerikansk jazzsaksofonist, multi-instrumentalist, komponist, forfattar og lærar. Han har gjeve ut 16 plater som leiar og spelt på tallause andre album som sidemann for artistar som Buddy Rich, Frank Sinatra og Steely Dan. Forfattaren og journalisten Cicily Janus rekna Weiskopf som «ein av dagens beste, ukjende musikarar», og JazzTimes Magazine rekna han som undervurdert og «ein særs potent tenorsaksofonist som syner ein sterk påverknad frå Trane-Rollins».
