Callum, who delighted audiences when he played the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto with the orchestra in October 2009, will play Dvorák’s Violin concerto in A minor.

Smart came to wide public attention when at the age of 13 he won the string section of the 2010 BBC Young Musicians Competition and is now developing a career as a soloist, whilst still studying at Chetham’s School of Music in Manchester.
