春の音楽リサイタル

Hi, my name is Mrs. Ruthie, and I am so excited to meet you!

I am a professional harpist and private music teacher living in West Tennessee, USA. I teach from my own music studio online and in-person, and I am thrilled to expand my studio onto the Outschool platform. In my studio, I specialize in teaching private piano, voice, and harp lessons. Here on Outschool, you will find my "Piano Lessons: Personalized for You!" for any age group, as well as fun, small group singing classes for young learners and teenagers.

Music has been in my life since I was very young, when I began learning the piano at the age of 4. I started studying the harp at age 11, receiving my Diploma in Harp Performance from the acclaimed Associated Board of the Royal School of Music (ABRSM) in 2018. I am an alumni of Union University in Tennessee where I studied harp, voice, and piano. I graduated with my Bachelor's of Music in Composition in 2020.

Along with my classical music studies, I have well-rounded experience participating in many different styles of music while playing the harp, piano, or being a vocalist. I have experience in lead roles in musical theater productions, have participated in high-level choral and A-Capella singing groups, lead music with the piano in contemporary and more traditional churches, and played my harp for countless events ranging from symphonies to private parties. And as much as I love performing, in the last year and a half, I have found that I LOVE teaching music. With over 40 weekly private students ranging from 4 year-olds to 70 year-olds, teaching the beauty of music to my diverse student base keeps me inspired everyday. I hope to inspire your learner to love playing music as much as I do.

I live with my husband and our little orange kitten "Winnie" in a small town in Tennessee. Besides all things music, I love to spend time with my family and friends, cook yummy food, and work in my garden. Please reach out if you have any questions about my studio!
