Atarah Ben-Tovim is a British flautist and children's concert presenter.
Born of Israeli parents, at the age of fourteen, Ben-Tovim played her first television concerto live at the Royal Albert Hall.
She has guested on several UK television and radio shows, including Lunchtime Pebble Mill on BBC TV and the John Dunn Show, Start the Week, Kaleidoscope and many other highly rated programmes.
In the late 1980s, BBC Radio Three networked Atarah's Music Box, all about children and music and Omnibus devoted a whole programme to her work, as did Blue Peter and Magpie. Her own television series, aimed at primary school children, aired in 19821.
Her musical stories for little children in Rub-a-Dub-Tub on Sunday mornings ran for over two years. And BRMB (Birmingham), Radio City (Liverpool), Radio Merseyside (Liverpool), Radio Piccadilly (Manchester), Red Rose Radio (Preston, Lancashire) and many other stations carried her radio series over the years.
She currently resides in France, where she teaches and holds workshops for budding flautists and clarinettists.2
