Testimonials

Anyone with that much talent should have been drowned at birth.

Bryan Bowers, acclaimed autoharpist and Autoharp Hall of Fame member

Lucille is in a class by herself when it comes to playing and teaching the dulcimer.

Norine Humm, Michigan

A Denver musical icon…Holy mackerel!

John Kuzma, Minister of Music, Montview Presbyterian Church, Denver, CO

A true musical talent….Her hands produce really fine music.

Sierra Vista Herald, Arizona

I will never forget the first time I heard Lucille play. It is right up there with the most outstanding performances I’ve ever heard (Victor Horowitz, Leon Fleisher, and James Galway, to name a few).

Kay Hooper, pianist and Alexander Technique clinician, Pennsylvania

Lucille performs with a skill and grace not usually heard (or seen)…a committed performer/teacher who strives for excellence, bringing wit and personality to her performances…delightful to listen to and a pleasure to watch.

June Van Thoen, Director, Music at Morristown (NJ) United Methodist Church

Her incredible music blew away the whole church! We never imagined the hammered dulcimer and autoharp could play so diversely and musically.

Washington Park UCC Church, Denver, CO

I have absolute, open-mouthed (literally!) astonishment at the way Lucille took the simplest of jigs and turned it into a performance that was almost transcendent.

Tony Hessling, hammered dulcimer player, Indiana

Lucille’s playing of the hammered dulcimer reminds me of a hummingbird whose wings you cannot see, only the flutter.

Sandy Jones, hammered dulcimer player, Michigan

The best thing to walk into our studio in a few years.

Jim Ratts, Raven Recording, Colorado
