You may remember Cyntia Smith from her long association with fellow dulcimer player, Ruth Barrett. They recorded five critically acclaimed albums and made four memorable appearances at Caltech, most recently, in 1997. Ruth has since moved to Wisconsin, while Cyntia has continued to perform occasionally in Southern California. Cyntia now has a new group, called the Lilies, which features her friends, Suzanne Schuetz (flute, fretted dulcimer and vocals) and Gail Hill (guitar, bass, percussion, and vocals) in addition to Cyntia's fretted dulcimer, guitar, and beautiful voice.

While they continue to perform some of the Barrett & Smith material, this ensemble is a bit different philosophically and musicaly. Their Caltech concert will pay homage to the winter season with love songs, unique instrumental pieces and traditional folk music of the British Isles. This fine trio will feature a few wassail and winter songs, a bit of flamenco, and the celebration of Nature in their show. This promisses to be a very fine show.
