Along with being an accomplished visual artist, Jaeger studied sound engineering at the renowned Dick Grove School of Music in Los Angeles and has been formally trained in Indian Classical Music on both tabla and esraj. She has performed throughout India and the US with many of India's leading classical musicians. Her recordings for film and commercial projects include the only advertisement made for Facehook marketing, films for Warner Bros. Studios, Rhythm & Hues and Sony Pictures, and she earned critical acclaim for a live theatrical score composed and performed live for a two-month extended run of the play Buddha - A Fantastic Journey, in collaboration with director John C. Reilly. With musician John Stephens she also designed and co-authored the book Sangeet - Legacy or the Maihar Gharana for Ustad Aashish Khan.

Deeply invested in cultural preservation, Jaeger founded and directs East Projects, an organization promoting and documenting Indian Music and Arts events, and has organized numerous Indian classical concerts, fesitvals, and music workshops throughout Southern California.

This music is traditionally taught in the Guru-Shishya Parampara style, a revered teacher-student tradition that emphasizes personal mentorship and oral transmission of knowledge which fosters a deep understanding and mastery of musical forms, techniques, and cultural context.
