Testimonials

Music drips from her fingers. Lucille Reilly is music.

Dr. John Williams, friend and music aficionado, Alabama

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

Bryan Bowers, acclaimed autoharpist and Autoharp Hall of Fame member

Exuberant and lively…GREAT energy!!!

Kathy O’Hanlon, hammered dulcimer player, West Virginia

Each of the four times I have seen Lucille perform, she has consistently wowed the audience with her musicality, technical expertise, and lively and engaging personality, drawing the audience in and sharing with them her love of music, her enthusiasm for her instruments, and her joy of performance.

Dorothy Westgate, Montgomery Cultural Center, New Jersey

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

Norine Humm, Michigan

In addition to being talented, Lucille is also personable…the whole audience was drawn in to her performance.

Great Lakes Scottish Fiddle Club Newsletter, Illinois

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

Jim Ratts, Raven Recording, Colorado

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

I have always believed in giving public credit to musicians whose talent and originality awe and inspire me, and one of the best is LUCILLE REILLY. She’s a master at both hammered dulcimer and autoharp. I love her magnificent technique, feeling for the music, and clever (often humorous) improvisations on well-known music.

Lois Hornbostel, North Carolina
