Adrienne Baker ā Past Concerts
Adrienne's background in music started as a toddler crawling around her mother's feet as she practiced Beethoven. Though active in her church as a pianist and singer, where her mother was Minister of Music, she eventually discovered her love for the flute.
She currently champions music influenced by artists of color and works to expose audiences to these underrepresented composers. A socially conscious artist, Adrienne strives to use her voice to help others find theirs. Through her collaborative duo with saxophonist Seychelle Dunn-Corbin, NorthStar Duo, they work to promote and expose audiences to works for woodwinds.
An arranger and composer, her original works include I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free with effects pedal and the Pug Suite for Flute and Cello. She has also commissioned and premiered works such as Just Passing and Running In Place by Peter Christian.
Adrienne doesn't only feel passionate about representation in the art form, but the artists themselves. As a worker-owner at Groupmuse, she is one of a dedicated cohort that brings together musicians and their communities to experience the power of chamber music together.
A passionate educator, she also works as a private educator and teaching artist. At New Jersey Performing Arts Center ArtsEd, she works as a Teaching Artist in the Jazz for Teens and RAMP (Recorder Arts for Musical Pathways) programs. She believes in first fostering a love of learning and appreciation for the craft, thereby supporting her students as they find their own voice.
