Widely acknowledged as a master in vocal pedagogy (she also has a special program to train voice teachers), Ms. Baker’s teaching style is an accumulation of over 25 years training and performance. Dubbed “the voice whisperer” by multiple Grammy-nominee and educator Mark Murphy, her roster includes Grammy award winners and nominees, Night at the Apollo winners, American Idol and America’s Got Talent finalists and major label jazz and pop recording artists - singers and instrumentalists. “I consider Kate Baker to be one of the best voice teachers in the field,” says “Queen of Scream” Melissa Cross. “Her teaching is methodical and the results are powerful. Kate creates artists and brings out the very best in the singer.”

A worldwide respected vocal clinician, her methods are functional and somatic in nature and include evidence-based voice science. Ever since personally overcoming a damaged voice, she has dedicated herself to the study of vocal health, specializing in the development and restoration of the voice, and has helped countless vocalists. “Kate Baker is the epitome of what stellar vocal coaches are made of. She has a way with her students that no one I have ever met has,” says one American Idol finalist. “Kate Baker has the wonderful gift of being able to identify an area of the voice that needs work and crafting individual exercises that produce profound results in her students. She is knowledgeable, effective, warm and extremely caring,” says LaTanya Hall, jazz vocalist and backup singer to Steely Dan.

Ms. Baker teaches privately and is on the faculty of the New School University of Jazz and Contemporary Music. She has conducted master classes at major institutions throughout the United States and Europe, including co-leading many master classes with singing legends Sheila Jordan and Mark Murphy, and presenting workshops and clinics on “The Art of the Duo” with Vic Juris. In addition, she is also known as a vocal producer in New York and Los Angeles with several Grammy-winning producers, including Josh Thompson, Jeff Bova, Steve Greenwell and others.
