Eli’s music has been performed at universities, high schools, festivals, and venues across the Southeastern United States.

Eli’s approach to orchestration, use of dissonance, and texture stems from his background of studying and performing wind ensemble repertoire. As a student of Katherine Young and Adam Mirza, Eli frequently collaborates with other young composers in the Emory composition studio to curate showcases and workshops for new music.
