Margaret Lloyd (born 1973) is an American soprano who is particularly known for her performances in contemporary operas and concert works. She has sung in the world premieres of several operas, most notably portraying the role of Lightfoot McClendon in the premiere of Carlisle Floyd's Cold Sassy Tree at the Houston Grand Opera in 2000.[1] She has also sung in the world premieres of several works by composer Michael Torke. BiographyLloyd was born and raised in Ames, Iowa. She graduated from Ames High School in 1991 and then entered Northwestern University where she earned a bachelor's degree in vocal performance in 1995.[2] In 1996 she joined the Young American Artists Program at Glimmerglass Opera, making her professional opera debut with the company that year as Margret Borden in Jack Beeson's Lizzie Borden.[3] The following year she played Curley’s Wife in Glimmerglass's production of Carlisle Floyd's Of Mice and Men.[4] In 1999 Lloyd returned to Glimmerglass Opera again to appear in the world premieres of three one act operas that were presented together under the title Center City. For this production she portrayed the role of Jessica in Deborah Drattell and Wendy Wasserstein's The Festival of Regrets, the role of The Daughter in Michael Torke and A.R. Gurney's Strawberry Fields, and the Woman with sun reflector in Robert Beaser and Terrence McNally's The Food of Love. The works were also presented with the same casts at the New York City Opera that year.[5] She also sang as a soloist in the world premieres of Aaron Jay Kernis's Garden of Light and Michael Torke's Four Seasons with the New York Philharmonic, the New York Choral Artists, and the American Boychoir under conductor Kurt Masur at Avery Fisher Hall.[6] In addition, Lloyd sang the role of Gretel in Engelbert Humperdinck's Hänsel und Gretel with Chicago Opera Theater.[7] In 2000 Lloyd portrayed Cunegonde in Leonard Bernstein's Candide at Central City Opera.[8] She also appeared at the Houston Grand Opera (HGO) as Lightfoot McClendon in the world premiere of Carlisle Floyd's Cold Sassy Tree, a role which she recorded and reprised at the Austin Lyric Opera (2001), San Diego Opera (2002), Utah Opera (2003), Opera Carolina (2003), and Opera Omaha (2004).[9][10][11] In 2001 she portrayed the roles of Pamina in The Magic Flute and Amy in Mark Adamo's Little Women at the HGO. The latter performance was recorded live for broadcast on PBS's Great Performances and subsequently released on CD and DVD.[12] That same year she performed the role of Josephine in H.M.S. Pinafore with Santa Fe Opera and sang the world premiere of Michael Torke's Four Proverbs as Alice Tully Hall, later singing the premiere of the chamber orchestra version of that work with the American Composers Orchestra at Zankel Hall in 2005.[13][14] In 2002 she portrayed the role of Sophie in Richard Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier with Opera Carolina[15] and Cunegonde in Candide with Portland Opera.[16] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.houstonpress.com/2000-04-20/culture/a-georgia-peach|title=A Georgia Peach Carlisle Floyd's adaptation of Cold Sassy Tree is a comic song of the South|first=Cynthia | last=Greenwood| work=Houston Press|date=April 20, 2000| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Lloyd, Margaret}}2. ^{{cite web| url=http://www.midiowanews.com/site/index.cfm?newsid=10649025&BRD=2700&PAG=461&dept_id=554188&rfi=8| title=Ames artist, musician return to share talents| first=Jayne| last=Bullock| work=Mid-Iowa News| date=December 11, 2003| accessdate=March 25, 2009| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110714091525/http://www.midiowanews.com/site/index.cfm?newsid=10649025&BRD=2700&PAG=461&dept_id=554188&rfi=8| archivedate=July 14, 2011| df=}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1996/07/23/arts/music-review-revenge-in-mind-and-ax-in-hand-lizzie-borden-s-back.html?scp=12&sq=%22Margaret+Lloyd%22&st=nyt| title=MUSIC REVIEW;Revenge in Mind and Ax in Hand, Lizzie Borden's Back| first=Anthony | last=Tommasini| work=The New York Times| date=July 23, 1996| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/08/19/arts/listening-for-inner-truths-at-the-glimmerglass-opera.html?sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all| title=Listening for Inner Truths At the Glimmerglass Opera| first=Anthony | last=Tommasini| work=The New York Times| date=August 19, 1997| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/11/15/arts/city-opera-review-park-bench-habitues-play-out-life-in-song.html| title=CITY OPERA REVIEW; Park Bench Habitues Play Out Life in Song| first=Bernard | last=Holland| work=The New York Times| date=November 15, 1999| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/10/11/arts/music-review-disney-millennium-symphonies.html?scp=7&sq=%22Margaret+Lloyd%22&st=nyt| title=MUSIC REVIEW; Disney 'Millennium Symphonies'| first=Paul | last=Griffiths| work=The New York Times| date=October 11, 1999| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 7. ^Opera News, 1999 8. ^Opera News, 2000 9. ^Cold Sassy Tree at www.newmusicon.org {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120213112233/http://www.newmusicon.org/v8n4/coldsassy.htm |date=2012-02-13 }} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/review?oid=oid%3A80175| title=Cold Sassy Tree: One Gol-Durned Town| first=Robi | last=Polgar| work=The Austin Chronicle| date=January 13, 2001| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 11. ^Opera News, 2003 12. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/29/arts/television-review-lyricism-but-few-modern-bits-for-the-march-sisters.html?scp=3&sq=%22Margaret+Lloyd%22&st=nyt| title=TELEVISION REVIEW; Lyricism but Few Modern Bits for the March Sisters| first=Anthony| last=Tommasini| work=The New York Times| date=August 29, 2001| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 13. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/14/arts/music/14comp.html?_r=1&scp=2&sq=%22Margaret+Lloyd%22&st=nyt| title=A Daredevil Spirit, and Acrobats in Contemporary American Fare | first=Anne | last=Midggette| work=The New York Times| date=November 14, 2005| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 14. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2001/01/31/arts/performance-classical-music-9-composers-share-festival-but-follow-their-own.html?scp=4&sq=%22Margaret+Lloyd%22&st=nyt| title=IN PERFORMANCE: CLASSICAL MUSIC; 9 Composers Share a Festival But Follow Their Own Paths| first=Paul | last=Griffiths| work=The New York Times| date=January 31, 2001| accessdate=March 28, 2009}} 15. ^Opera News, Der Rosenkavalier 16. ^Opera News, 2002 7 : 1973 births|Living people|Bienen School of Music alumni|American operatic sopranos|Ames High School alumni|21st-century American singers|21st-century women singers |
