She has also played with many orchestras including the Royal Northern Sinfonia, North Yorkshire County Orchestra, St Cecilia, School orchestras and more recently in the Hull Philharmonic. She has also been on BBC Radio Humberside promoting an event that was happening in Holy Trinity Church. She began playing the organ after being awarded a Choral Scholarship at Harrogate Ladies’ College that allowed her to take organ lessons. Now she has organ lessons at Beverly Minster with the Director of Music there, Robert Poyser having gained a bursary from the university. Being a choral Scholar meant she also sang in the school’s chapel choir and sang live on a BBC Radio 3 broadcast.

Lucinda plays for many different functions such as weddings and other celebratory events and dinners.
