A graduate of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris, the Université Paris-Sorbonne as well as the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève and laureate of the Chieri International Competition, Clément had the opportunity to travel throughout Europe and Asia during his studies, being invited by youth orchestras such as the European Union Youth Orchestra, the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester or the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival.
He is now regularly invited to perform with prestigious European orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra, the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra, the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester, the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich and the Orchestre de Paris, under the baton of the greatest conductors including Klaus Mäkelä, Riccardo Chailly, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Antonio Pappano, Daniel Harding and Myung-Whun Chung.

He is regularly asked to tutor students' dissertations at Geneva's Haute Ecole de Musique, where he will take up the post of horn professor in 2023-2024. Clément also coaches the Verbier Festival Junior Orchestra.
