Baker began his interest in recording in his teens, releasing his first album, a Big Band, through RCA in 1968. He was a radio personality during college and beyond, began recording classical music professionally in the late 1980s, switching from analog to digital (DAT and ADAT), founding [l3854221], LLC, in 1995. Recording for other labels was a staple, as was moving forward in technology, and the Affetto label was founded to serve the needs of many classical ensembles which deserved to have their recordings released to a wider audience but had difficulty interesting labels in a time of decreasing numbers. A Naxos recording by him of composer James Whitbourn’s “Annalies”, the first musical setting of the Diaries of Anne Frank, performed by the Westminster Williamson Voices conducted by Dr. James Jordan was nominated for a Grammy in 2013. Since 1992 he has recorded more than 200 CDs, both self-released and for labels. He is a New Jersey native, born in Princeton, and earned both his B.A. and M.B.A. at Rutgers University.
