Llŷr Williams has performed with such orchestras as the BBC Symphony Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, London Mozart Players, Halle Orchestra and the Minnesota Orchestra.

He has performed at the BBC Proms and the Edinburgh Festival. This season brings a busy mix of recitals, concerti, accompaniment and chamber music.

Llŷr and violinist Alexander Janiczek have continued their successful Beethoven series at Perth Concert Hall, and he has toured in Europe with Mitsuko Uchida, Christian Poltera, Soovin Kim and Martin Fröst, with venues including the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London.

He will work again with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, and will return to I Pomeriggi Musicali in Milan to work with Antonello Manacorda and Alexander Janiczek. He has given a series of four recitals for BBC Radio 3 in Cardiff to mark the opening of BBC Hoddinott Hall, including one with bass Shenyang, winner of the 2007 competition.

In 2009 Llŷr will make his recital debuts at the Lucerne Festival, in the Wigmore Hall's main recital series and at Carnegie Hall in New York.

Llŷr has been one of BBC Cardiff Singer of the World's official accompanists since 2003.
