 Nicholas Walker is an accomplished musician who brings a broad range of training and experience to the double bass: classical and jazz, modern and baroque, solo recitals and chamber ensembles. His enthusiasm and aptitude transcend arbitrary musical boundaries, and his exuberant and versatile performances have made him a sought-after performer in many styles. From 1995 to 2005 Walker worked as a freelance musician and band leader in NYC. He has been featured on two dozen CDs, three as a leader, and he has frequently been heard on NPR's Performance Today. Walker has played with many jazz masters, he has given solo bass recitals on four continents, and he has performed at music festivals worldwide. In addition, he is an inventive composer, who features the string bass in solo, chamber music, and improvisational contexts.
