British trumpeter Matilda Lloyd captivates audiences with her artistry, communication, and musicality. Her “flawless sound and virtuosic technique” (Saarbrücker Zeitung) bring a unique flair to every performance. 
Matilda’s debut album for Chandos Records “Casta Diva” is released in April 2023. It includes Italian operatic arias and variations in brand new arrangements for trumpet and orchestra, with Britten Sinfonia and Rumon Gamba. 
Recent and future highlights include the world premiere of a new concerto written for her by Robin Haigh, and performances with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Südwestdeutsche Philharmonie, London Mozart Players, Orchestra Teatro San Carlo, Oulu Sinfonia, Orchestre de l’Opera de Rouen, Ulster Orchestra, Malmö Symphony Orchestra and Oklahoma City Philharmonic among others. 
 A graduate of Trinity College, Cambridge and the Royal Academy of Music, Matilda went on to study under Håkan Hardenberger at the Malmö Academy of Music. In 2014, Matilda won the BBC Young Musician of the Year Brass Final and made her BBC Proms solo debut two years later with Alpesh Chauhan and BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. Matilda has won many prizes at international competitions, including First Prize at the Eric Aubier International Trumpet Competition in Rouen, France in 2017. Matilda is a Yamaha Artist.
