Claudia Ruff

Originally from Germany where she worked as an Arts Project Manager and Music Educator, Claudia moved to New Zealand over a decade ago to join the Auckland Philharmonia's Learn & Participate Department. After her first daughter was born, she ventured out of the orchestral world to work in environmental education and for a Music Education Trust. Her passion for the orchestra and music education led her to close the circle and come back to work with the Auckland Philharmonia, developing and organising inspiring and interactive projects with and for the people living in Tāmaki Makaurau.
