Leighann Daihl Ragusa | Flute

Leighann Daihl Ragusa, historical flutist, has concertized throughout central Europe as well as the United States both as a soloist and as a collaborator of chamber and orchestral music. Her playing has been regarded as “invigoratingly fresh and perky” (Backtrack) as well as “some of the most spirited, stylish, and nuanced playing” (Chicago Classical Review). Leighann regularly performs with period instrument ensembles throughout the United States. Leighann is co-director of the Bach + Beethoven Experience, the Managing Director of the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra, and the Baroque Flute Competitions Coordinator for the National Flute Association. Leighann holds degrees in flute from DePauw University, Indiana University, and the Royal Conservatory of the Hague. Leighann was also the recipient of the prestigious Netherland-American fulbright grant.
