The best kept secret in music

Press


""El Carabobeño" Venezuela"

Ana Ruth Bermúdez, a brilliant cello soloist, was acclaimed for the virtuoso technique she displayed in her performance of Haydn’s C Major Concerto…In the hands of this young artist, the cello seemed like a small violin overflowing with different sonorities; it was a clean and graceful performance.
- Alfredo Fermín / 1994


""La nación", Venezuela"

The concert by the Orchesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar conducted by Ana Ruth Bermúdez was simply spectacular…She took flight not only with the baton but also with her entire body, capable of transmitting the feeling of the score and of the composer, who was brought back to life throughout the course of this performance.

...Bermúdez vibrates from all musical angles. As a conductor, as a performer, as a pedagogue; indeed, she knows that she was born to develop her natural potential, and she traces all the musical cardinal points moving with the tenacity of a high-flying bird…

- Ligia Parra Pérez


"Journal Sentinel, USA"

"Both are virtuosos, with extensive training and a profound understanding of the cultural thrusts behind the complex music of Spain, South America, and Caribe"
- Mary-Liz Shaw


"Cedarburg Newspaper, USA"

"My fingers try to follow my voice, my voice tries to follow my heart"

...Her eyes are close. Her lips are moving as if in prayer. Ana Ruth Bermudez is playing the cello. Nothing else exists for her. " When I close my eyes, I am closer to my soul."
- Renira Pachuta
