Extremely talented & gracious cellist - strongly recommend

I have no hesitation in recommending this wonderfully talented if not reliable if not beautiful cellist for any event you might consider holding she kindly played at my husband Richard Moyle's Surprise 70th party last night in Harpsden Village Hall & the party would not have been the same without her; I cannot wait to hire her again! kind regards Ffion Marianne Moyle/Harpsden/Henley-on-Thames

Accommodating, friendly, talented

Lucinda recently played at our Devon winter wedding and from the initial contact with her, we were completely confident that she would create a beautiful and unique atmosphere with her music. It was brilliant to see her perform ahead of time through her online portfolio and she was so flexible and professional to discuss different pieces of music for the entrance of the bride, ceremony and reception. One of my favourite moments from the day was walking into the marquee full of family and friends to the sound of the cello playing and the wonderful vibe she created through it. The perfect balance between entertainment and background accompaniment for any event and her demeanour and kind presence just added to it all! Thank you Lucinda!
