Lloyd, David

Lloyd, David, American tenor; b. Minneapolis, Feb. 29, 1920. He was educated at the Minneapolis Coll. of Music (B.A., 1941) and studied voice with Bonelli at the Curtis Inst. of Music in Philadelphia. On Oct. 13, 1950, he made his operatic debut as David in Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg at the N.Y.C. Opera, where he sang regularly until 1958; he appeared there again in 1965 and 1976. His other operatic engagements took him to Boston, Washington, D.C., New Orleans, and St. Paul. In 1955 he sang at the Athens Festival and in 1957 at the Glyndebourne Festival. He also pursued an active career as a concert and oratorio singer. He taught at the Univ. of Ill. in Urbana (from 1971) and was director of the Lake George Opera Festival in N.Y. (from 1974). Lloyd was particularly admired for his roles in operas by Mozart, Rossini, and Richard Strauss.
