Born into a family of professional musicians, Lucie began to study the recorder at the age of five. Only four years later, her televised performance of Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 5 at a popular concert on the Prinsengracht canal caused a national sensation. At the age of 11 after winning many competitions, she moved to the Sweelinck Academie at the Amsterdam Conservatory where she studied the recorder with Walter van Hauwe. Also, a talented pianist, she studied with Marjes Benoist and Jan Wijn at the Amsterdam Conservatorium. She was a member of the National Children’s Choir for seven years, performing with conductors such as Sir Simon Rattle and Mariss Jansons. Lucie is also an accomplished pianist and mezzo soprano. She completed a cum laude singing masters with Xenia Meijer at the Amsterdam Conservatory as well as a masters’ degree with distinction in fortepiano in Olga Pashchenko’s studio.

Lucie plays on recorders made by Seiji Hirao, Frederick Morgan, Stephan Blezinger, Francesco LiVirghi and others.
