Harry has also enjoyed several wonderful solo opportunities, including performing as a soloist in Bonham, a drum kit concerto featured in the Rouse Festival and performing the soloistic drum kit part in Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story.
Ellie
Ellie Pike is in her final year studying saxophone at the Royal Northern College of Music where she performs and records regularly with the Big Band, Saxophone Orchestra and Wind Orchestra. Her individuality as a saxophonist and singer has made her the dedicatee of numerous new compositions and she is a regular soloist in premieres at the RNCM. In 2010 she performed for the Queen’s Birthday Party at the British Embassy in Tunis singing the British and Tunisian national anthems.
She is a member of the Urbis Saxophone Quartet, with whom she has performed the UK premiere of Freidrich Cerha's Saxophon Quartett, John Casken's Concerto, Distant Variations (with the RNCM Wind Collective) and has recently reached the final of the national Clarinet and Saxophone Society Quartet Competition.
Ellie is excited to be joining the team at HFCC and is looking forward to rekindling her passion for singing.
