Ruth Anneliese Welcome (April 24, 1918 – March 6, 2005) was a German-American zither player and recording artist for Capitol Records. She emigrated from Germany at age 8, taking up residence in New York City. She went on to study violin and piano performance at The Juilliard School, but it was her work as a zither player that brought her to the attention of Capitol Records.
