Lucy wants to get EVERYONE singing! She is passionate about creating opportunities for people from all walks of life to get together and experience the transformative power of singing together, regardless of age, background or level of experience. She started out singing in the back of the car on long journeys, either with or in order to irritate her sisters. She is now a conductor, presenter, composer, writer and animateur, making music with thousands of people across the country each year.
Lucy is Creative Director of the National Youth Choir, a vocal leader for Music of Life, Principal Guest Conductor of the Cambridge Philharmonic, a conducting tutor for the Association of British Choral Directors, and Conductor of the CBSO’s Community Choir, SO Vocal. Previous roles have included Conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra’s Junior and Senior Choirs, Associate Chorus Director of the London Symphony Chorus, Head of Music at the University of Warwick and a Lecturer in Choral Conducting at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.
From performing at a sewage treatment works to levitating her son live on stage at the Barbican, Lucy is always looking to engage new audiences and share the joy of making music together.
