Ruth loves Beethoven, Mozart, and obviously Heifetz whose repertoire inspires her, she told t5m. And she also admits that it is the recordings of these composers that are inspiring, rather than the performances.
However, when Ruth was at a music course in France in 2003, she witnessed a performance that took her breath away.
