Featuring the perfect combo of organ and trumpet, Matilda Lloyd and Richard Gowers bring their highly acclaimed UK tour to Portico.
Matilda Lloyd
Hailed as “remarkable" by the Daily Telegraph, Matilda Lloyd is a fast-rising young artist with exceptional poise and musicality. She captivates audiences and critics alike with her artistry and communication, with her “flawless sound and virtuosic technique” bringing a unique flair to every performance.
Matilda comments: “The trumpet is my voice, allowing me to express myself and share my music. I’m passionate about challenging people’s perceptions of the trumpet as a solo instrument: maximising its versatility and expanding the repertoire for brass players of the next generation.”
