“.. a huge thank you for coming to Peter Lea on Tuesday. Our pupils were absolutely buzzing after the experience and very inspired to learn more about the music that was played and the instruments they saw. The whole workshop was so well pitched and delivered and we have now have plenty of inspiration for the rest of our learning expedition. Such a beautiful experience for our pupils!”

“What can I say? Ruth was absolutely fabulous... she had the audience eating out of the palm of her hand. Her energy and passion was so infectious throughout the whole concert and the way she taught and delivered my song was just inspiring. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!.”

“The kids absolutely loved it, Ruth had them totally in the palm of her hand. They were totally buzzing throughout and in fits of giggles, particularly in the swallowing book moment, the dancing and the switch game. .”

“A number of staff came to me after school to say that Ruth and Ben’s music workshops’s were the best we have had for a number of years. In particular they were impressed by their adaptability to tailor the workshops to the different needs of each group and then to adapt as they went along according to student responses. In addition, it was lovely to have two people who were willing to have a go at signing in Makaton, picking up from staff how to sign particular phrases, in order to communicate better with our students. ”

“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Ruth on a number of projects. Our musicians also lovely working with her as she is very much ‘one of them’ and there is an immediate trust created between music leader and orchestra. We’ve had wonderful feedback from audience members who attended concerts that Ruth presented.”
