Ruth Routledge

Based in London, UK, Ruth is a dynamic choir conductor, singer and teacher, as comfortable with classical music as she is with pop, jazz and world.  She is a graduate in Music and Philosophy from the University of Birmingham, where she conducted the University Chamber Choir before studying choral conducting and jazz singing in Lyon, France.  

Ruth has given renowned performances as a conductor and vocalist at the Royal Festival Hall, The Barbican, Wigmore Hall, Birmingham Symphony Hall, The Roundhouse, The 606 Jazz Club, Kings Place and l’Opera de Montpellier.  She has also worked with the Southbank’s Voicelab artist in residence Mary King, and continues her collaborations with other singers and musicians in the UK’s burgeoning choral scene.

Ruth works in all aspects of the voice, from one-on-one vocal coaching to leading 400-strong choirs in professional, amateur and educational contexts.  Wherever she is, she enthuses, enables and gets the singers to achieve things they never thought were possible.
