Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as "funny and fresh-voiced", Gary Ruschman is an American vocal artist, composer, and choral conductor.


Living at the artistic crossroads of classical, folk, jazz, and fun, he has appeared with orchestras, opera companies, and music festivals around the world, including the Boston Pops, Kennedy Center, Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Prague Choral Festival, Portland Opera, Royal Opera House Oman, American Bach Soloists, and A Prairie Home Companion.

Gary toured the globe for a decade with Cantus vocal ensemble, recording more than a dozen albums.

He maintains an active singing and conducting schedule, and spends much of his offstage time composing and arranging for voices.

News:

Gary was recently awarded a Faith Partners residency by American Composers Forum. This major grant will fund the composition of six new pieces over the next 18 months.
