About

Celebrated as an ‘eloquent trumpet soloist’ by The Times, Matilda Lloyd enthrals audiences with her exceptional artistry and communication. Her début album, Casta Diva, earned BBC Music Magazine’s Recording of the Month in June 2023, praised for its ‘intense expression and immense warmth’. She will be a European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO) Rising Star for the 2024/25 season, performing on some of Europe’s most prestigious stages, and we’re delighted to welcome her to join forces with our Wind Orchestra.

Brimming with excitement and pulsating rhythms, this dynamic programme, inspired by Augusta Read Thomas’ Dancing Galaxy, showcases the unparalleled vibrancy of a wind orchestra. Featuring bold and richly textured works, the evening offers a musical journey that promises to invigorate and inspire.
