Rama Kumaran is a multiflutist in Nashville, TN. He has played the official recordings of Herman Beeftink's flute music for the last 10 years. As a teenager, he was the youngest winner of the National Flute Association's Young Artist Competition, later completing his Bachelors at Vanderbilt University and his Masters in classical and early music at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. In 2025-26, he will tour with Sony PlayStation and debut as piccolo player of the Jackson Symphony in west Tennessee. As a recording artist in the Nashville studio scene, Rama plays orchestral and folk flutes on the soundtracks of movies, video games, and theme park attractions. He has the heart of a gamer, so when he's not practicing or reading, he's watching VTuber streams or leveling up his characters in Honkai Star Rail.
Rama’s teachers include Kersten McCall, Jed Wentz, Molly Barth, Jeff Coffin, Michael Rose, Carl Smith, Marianne Ploger, Leslie Fagan, Philip Dikeman, Tracy Harris, Karen Hansen, and Lovina Leon.
