Ruth Molins is a flautist, a pianist, a teacher, a composer and a poet.
Ruth has over 10 years experience of playing in all sorts of ensembles in the South West of the UK: orchestras, improvising, contemporary, baroque, musical theatre. Ruth was invited to perform as a soloist with Exeter Symphony Orchestra in 2012 (Rutter, Suite Antique) and again with Sally Jenkins (harp) in 2015 (Mozart, Concerto for Flute and Harp). See full biography for further details.
Ruth performs regularly with Flute Cake (flute trio with Sophie Brewer and Jennifer Campbell), Zephyr (with harpist Sally Jenkins) and with pianist Alex Wilson. Collaborations with Flute Cake and Alex are currently inspiring her composition work. (Writing for collaboration with a harpist is too complicated!) She is currently composing music for flutes inspired by buildings and interiors. Follow the link for photos, clips and reactions from the first performance of her composition Make Room, and also see her blog makeroom. Ruth also writes words and poems, with some pieces displayed at rememberingmydreams. She is currently amalgamating more of her own experiments with composing and writing into her performance work.
Ruth teaches flute and piano privately and within four schools Okehampton College, St Peter’s High School (Exeter), The Woodroffe School (Lyme Regis) and Broadclyst Primary, is a tutor for Blue Sky Chamber Music, coaches Devon County Youth Music ensembles, is an adjudicator for local Rotary Club music competitions, provides piano accompaniment for music exams and is the founder and Musical Director of Exeter Youth Flutes and Exeter Flutes.
