Elliot Murphy is an Irish composer and instrumentalist (cello, guitar) based in Berlin.

Recent compositions include a work for solo cello and interactive pre-recorded strings, written in celebration of the Septuacentennial of Dante’s Divine Comedy and supported by funding from the Irish Arts Council. Inferno premiered at the Coach House Gallery in Dublin Castle, alonside the artwork of Liam O’Broinn, before a delegation including the Irish President and the Italian Ambassador to Ireland, with the composer as soloist.

Interests in aleatoricism, folk music and modality found expression in I dTírdreach, written for the cellists of the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra in celebration of the 20th anniversary of Lyric FM, and in works for percussionist Alex Petcu, cellist Adrian Mantu, and the Avalon Ensemble.

Elliot studied Music at Trinity College Dublin, where he specialised in Composition under Professors Donnacha Dennehy and Evangelia Rigaki. On graduation he was awarded the Geoffrey Singleton Prize in Music and the Gerard Victory Prize in Composition.
