Walter Baeken

Saxophone Quartet 1

Whether jazz, funk, pop, world music or classical, Walter has played all of these musical styles after graduating. From 1990 till 1995 he was a member of high-energy funk-jazz groups like 'Real Deal' and 'the DSWB quartet'. He also made his first recordings at that time. At the end of the nineties he played world music with 'Kunda Buffi' and 'Native Soil', jazz with The Musetrap (the Jan Muës ensemble) and touched many hearts during the Guido Belcanto tour. A multifaceted musician, Walter Baeken does not only play his horn, he also composes and arranges classical and contemporary music for a variety of ensembles. He is also busy working as a session musician on many CD-recordings.
