Fiona Rutherford | Scottish Harp teacher

Fiona Rutherford — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 10:21:42 +0000

Hello! After several years working as a freelance musician in Edinburgh, I will be based in Glasgow from 2013.

I enjoy a busy career which combines composing, performing and teaching work.

I studied at the City of Edinburgh Music School and I learned to play harp from Sophie Askew, Isobel Mieras and Savourna Stevenson. I then went on to study for a degree in Music Composition (First Class BA Hons), at Dartington College of Arts. I moved back to Edinburgh in 2008, where I completed a Mmus in Composition at Edinburgh University with Nigel Osborne.
