Testimonials

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 hear Lucille’s heart in her music.

Ben Buckles, hammered dulcimer player, Kansas

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

Lucille’s arrangements are nothing short of stunning!

Autoharp Quarterly

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

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

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

Jim Ratts, Raven Recording, Colorado

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

Sierra Vista Herald, Arizona

Lucille’s love for music is communicated with every fiber of her being…her instruments seem to become part of her body.

Dr. Evelyn Drake, friend and music aficionada, New Jersey
