Claire began playing the French horn aged nine. Having been at Chetham’s School of Music in Manchester for her sixth form, she started studying at the Royal Academy of Music in London in September 2025. Recent performances include Glière’s horn concerto with Chetham’s Symphony Orchestra (as a winner of the concerto competition); Benjamin Britten’s Serenade for Tenor, Horn, and Strings with the Slaithwaite Philharmonic Orchestra; Saint-Saëns’ Morceau de Concert with the White Rose Orchestra; Strauss’s Horn Concerto No. 1 with the Buxton Music Society and the Loughborough Orchestra; and the Rondo from Mozart’s 4th horn concerto with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, which was broadcast live on BBC Radio 3. She was Joint Principal Horn of the National Youth Orchestra between 2023 and 2025, playing in many performances around the country including in the BBC Proms. In 2022, Claire played in the BBC Young Musician brass semi-finals and in 2024, was among the final five brass players.
