"His emotional communication is often profound, and his glittering, silvery tone captivates the ear."

Strad Magazine

"Elliott's playing was so smooth and easily produced that technical challenges simply seemed to evaporate under his fingers. Listening to his many hued melodic line was something like holding a silk thread up to the light...a whole spectrum of tone colors began to reflect from it."

Carl Cunningham, Houston Post

"Elliott showed himself a cellist capable of producing an exquisite tone. His was a Strauss that was broad, sweetly phrased and filled with the romance and character that is so necessary in this work. He painted a Quixote who was sad, but worldly; angry, but sensitive. By the end of the finale he had defined a personality simply, but thoroughly."
