Having originally started his career in architecture, Elliott’s passion for music soon took over and developed into a busy freelancing career. In 2014 he became an Ann Driver Trust Scholar and also received the Trinity Laban Award to study a Masters degree in performance at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, studying clarinet with Michael Whight and Juan Enric Lluna.
Since graduating Elliott has been freelancing with orchestras around London and the UK and is a regular clarinetist with the London Firebird Orchestra and Notting Hill Orchestra for Film Music.
The Waldegrave Ensemble are recording their debut album of chamber music for wind ensembles by British composer Mathew Taylor. The project is now in the mastering and production stages ready for the CD launch in summer 2018.
