Description:Hailed as â??remarkableâ?? by The Daily Telegraph, Matilda Lloyd is a young instrumentalist with exceptional poise and musicality. She studied music at the University of Cambridge, Royal Academy of Music, and with HÃ¥kan Hardenberger at Musikhögskolan i Malmö. She has since captivated audiences and critics alike with her artistry, communication, and, in the words of Saarbrücker Zeitung (March 2020), â??flawless sound and virtuosic techniqueâ??, with which she brings a unique flair to every performance. She won the BBC Young Musician of the Year Brass Final in 2014, and in 2016 made her début at the BBC Proms. Casta Diva is Matildaâ??s début album on Chandos, about which she writes: â??Every trumpet player has studied the ultimate technique book, by Jean-Baptiste Arban â?? a monumental tome affectionately known as â??The Trumpet Bibleâ??. At the end of the book are sets of theme and variations â?? my favourite, the Variations on Belliniâ??s Norma, became the point of departure for this album inspired by nineteenthcentury Italian opera, as it uses the aria â??Casta Divaâ??, from Belliniâ??s 1831 opera, as its theme. The album explores the voice of the trumpet in that golden age of opera, highlighting works by Rossini, Bellini, and Donizetti. I hope that the album showcases the beauty, musicality, and technical brilliance of the instrument, and that you find as much enjoyment in listening to, as we did in arranging and recording, these fantastic pieces of music! - ..
