Music Director of the Apollo Ensemble of Boston since 2018, Elias Miller has established a reputation as a leading young conductor and orchestra builder. He has worked with numerous orchestras across the United States including the New York Philharmonic, the Minnesota Orchestra, the Nashville Symphony, and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.

"The Apollo Ensemble and Miller (conducting the Tchaikovsky from memory) positively scintillated in these supple yet intense traversals under arduous conditions. Bravo."

-The Boston Musical Intelligencer

"[Co-directors] Miller and Grills have really steered the whole project themselves, from fund-raising and securing venues to printing programs and enlisting the required forces, which include a small orchestra, and chorus and five vocal soloists… Most of the other conducting projects Miller has undertaken have been similarly self-driven, entrepreneurial undertakings.”
