His musical work currently focuses on the band projects:
Walt's Blues Box (modern blues, sometimes with a whole brass section)
Walter Baumgartner Quartet (traditional swing and jump blues)
Acoustic Blues Drifter (acoustic duo blues with Joe Schwach/guitar , Vocals)
He is also in a duo with Michael Dolmetsch (piano, Hammond) and Hannes Kasehs (guitarist and singer from Vienna).
He has appeared on various CD productions . He has so far recorded 11 albums with his formations. In 2016 he won the Swiss Blues Award in Basel.
In the past, he hosted a 2-hour blues show live on Winterthur's local radio Stadtfilter for years, and founded and led the Albani Thursday Blues Session in Winterthur, which was successfully presented for 10 years . He held the Winterthur Blues Night in Salzhaus, Winterthur 4 times and has recently organized a traditional Blues Night in Dübendorf and other Swiss cities.
