Throughout his career, Lloyd-Jones has developed a reputation for his deep musical insight and dedication to showcasing the works of British composers, both celebrated and lesser-known, bringing to light the rich tapestry of Britain's musical heritage. His discography is extensive and varied, covering a wide range of composers and styles, from the well-trod paths of Holst's "The Planets" to the more obscure corners of British music, such as the works of Lord Berners, Alwyn, and Stanford.

Lloyd-Jones's most recent releases include a fascinating array of compositions, highlighting his versatility and commitment to exploring the breadth of British music. His recordings, such as "Lord Berners: Ballet Music – Les sirènes & Cupid and Psyche Suite" and "Holst: The Planets, Op. 32 - Matthews: Pluto, the Renewer," not only showcase his ability to interpret well-established pieces with fresh insight but also illustrate his interest in expanding the classical repertoire with modern extensions, like Colin Matthews' "Pluto, the Renewer." Furthermore, his work with rare pieces, such as "Standford: Symphony No. 1, Cello Concerto & Prelude to a Fantasy" and the albums featuring Alwyn's Concerti Grossi, underscores Lloyd-Jones's dedication to elevating underperformed compositions to the concert hall and recording studio.
