The Ridgewood Symphony Orchestra
General Manager
Karin Todd, a seven year veteran member of the staff, has served as a consultant for the Trenton Symphony Orchestra and as personal assistant to its Conductor and Musical Director. She attended Montclair State University and The School of Visual Arts in Manhattan. Karin brings to the RSO a broad range of experience directing all aspects of media relations, public relations, commercial production and marketing for programs in both classical and jazz venues. Ms. Todd has spent many years promoting the arts, as well as teaching viola and piano, privately. Karin has a strong musical background, coming from a family of notable musicians and composers.
Recently, she has designed and implemented a campaign in the alternative health field, lecturing on, and practicing, a specialized Japanese healing art, known as Seimei. "Music and healing are inseparable,'' says Ms. Todd, "it seems so natural to be involved in both."
With a fresh perspective and unique management style, Karin hopes to bring the symphony into exciting new territory. Enthusiastic about the opportunity to utilize her knowledge in both the artistic and management fields, she feels "there's no better time than right now, to nourish and restore the heart of our community through one of life's most joyous expressions - music."
