Ruth Gerson has been teaching voice in NYC for eleven years. The “New & Used” Songwriters Collective has emerged from her songwriting & performance classes and performs in clubs throughout the city on a monthly, or bi-monthly basis.
“Unlike many vocal coaches, Ruth Gerson is a very active singer, and a truly great one. But what makes her a rare treasure is her innate and honed ability to teach. Ruth doesn’t just give you exercises; she lovingly examines everything you do as a singer and seizes every creative opportunity to help you to sing like you never sang before. She’s the best!”
– Marc Berley
"Ruth's thoughtful, artistic coaching has helped me grow into a stronger singer, more confident performer & more poetic songwriter. Her guidance has heightened my musical inspiration!"
– Sherri Tennant
“Whether it’s in Ruth’s class or in private instruction, you feel a part of something immediately. Ruth is so warm and supportive – she finds your unique talent, and draws it out of you. And the areas you need to work on – she gives you the tools you need to turn them around. I have been writing songs and performing for 20 years (!), and Ruth has made me think differently about things I thought I knew how to do. It’s invigorating.”
– Michael Boezi
“I started Ruth’s class as a total novice singer who couldn’t carry a tune and wanted to change that. By the time the class was done, I had written an original song and performed it at a crowded bar in the East Village! Ruth helped me get there with her nurturing patience, contagious enthusiasm, and deep knowledge of the crafts of singing, writing, and performing. I’m so glad I took her class and can’t wait to do it again. She’s great.”
– Garret Savage
“I have been to a many people but you are the first to quickly recognize where I needed correction and give me tools that will help me.”
– Jose Schism, Toolfist
