“Jeff Baker is a world-class piano technician and consummate storyteller. I have had the pleasure of spending quality time with Jeff, and I’ve always enjoyed his way with words as he’s shared interesting and enjoyable stories from is long and varied career in music.”
Paul Avgerinos, Multi-Grammy® winner, Composer, Musical Meditations with Deepak Chopra.
“Jeff Baker’s wit and insider’s view, provides an endless stream of endearing details of behind-the-scene encounters with artists of many genres.”
Eli Yamin, pianist, founding director of Jazz at Lincoln Center Academy, founding director of Jazz Power Initiative, State Department, Worldwide Jazz Ambassador for the United States.
“As a television composer/producer, I depend on my piano to not only sound good, but to cut through a mix of often dense instrumentation - Jeff knows how to voice my piano so it sings above a chorus of synths and guitars. He hears exactly what he wants - which always ends up being what I like! Jeff is also a heck of a story teller, always at the ready with a good tale!”
Ed Dzubak; four-time Emmy-winning composer: Dateline NBC, The Young and the Restless, ABC’s 20/20.
