Concerts in the West: Callum Smart and Richard Uttley | Change to original programme

We welcome Callum Smart & Richard Uttley to the West Country.

CALLUM SMART is quickly developing an international reputation as one of Britain’s finest young violinists and an innovative teacher at the Royal Northern College of Music and on Instagram. Recognised as a rising star since winning the BBC Young Musician strings category and being the top European prize-winner at the Menuhin Competition in 2010, Smart now enjoys concert appearances with the UK’s leading orchestras.

RICHARD UTTLEY studied with Ian Buckle at the Junior School of the Royal Northern College of Music, before going on to read Music at Clare College, Cambridge (graduating with a double first in 2008), and studying with Martin Roscoe at Guildhall School. His London debut at the Southbank Centre’s Purcell Room in 2010 was described by The Times as a ‘brilliant recital’. Richard has since released several solo recordings to critical acclaim and performed as recitalist and concerto soloist at venues including Bridgewater Hall, Cadogan Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Wigmore Hall, and, further afield.
