Matilda Hofman
Conductor
Matilda Hofman
Matilda Hofman has a varied and busy conducting schedule. Reviewers have described her conducting as “taut and finely controlled” and giving “a striking sense of purpose.” She is Music Director of the Diablo Symphony Orchestra, conductor-in-residence for the Empyrean Ensemble at UC Davis and Artistic Director of the Left Coast Chamber Ensemble. Matilda also serves as a cover conductor for the San Francisco Symphony.
Matilda is a committed educator. In the 2024–25 season Matilda will be conductor-in-residence at the University of the Pacific, and a guest conductor at the Eastman School of Music and for the UC Davis Symphony Orchestra. When Matilda is not making music she can be found hanging out with her kids or working as a Wilderness Ranger in the Trinity Alps.
