| Chet Baker Foundation |


Born in Yale, Oklahoma December 23, 1929 Chet Baker was destined to touch the authentically American art of jazz music with an unmistakable sound and phrasing that is still celebrated and enjoyed throughout the world. The mission of the Chet Baker Foundation (based in his home state of Oklahoma) is to bring awareness through education and events to the life and art of Chet Baker. All are welcome to join and contribute...in the spirit of jazz improvisation...the spirit of music as a means to bring people together....and mostly in the romantic and unique artistic spirit of Chet Baker |
