'I feel incredibly fortunate to have studied at the Royal Welsh College. This place prepared me brilliantly for the profession, especially through the chamber music opportunities, where I developed my love for quartet playing. The College really helped me discover what I can bring to music.
There’s something really special about the College. The working environment, amazing teachers, masses of opportunities, and you can’t find facilities like this anywhere else. When I graduated, I had a well-rounded view of music and a new confidence in my playing, something the College definitely nurtures.
I moved to London and joined the Fibonacci Quartet, which has now become my full-time job—something I never imagined would be possible, as it's rare to have the privilege to do that.
Recently, we won the Borciani String Quartet Competition, and since then, everything has just taken off. We’ve been fortunate to have concert opportunities across Europe and the UK, and hopefully, some international ones are on the horizon next year.'Elliot Kempton
