Calliope Smith has been playing the violin since she was three. She attends Synapse School in California and loves classical and baroque chamber and solo music. She is a member of PACO (the Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra) and won the 2019 PACO Concerto Competition. As a result, she was going to be soloing with the orchestra in the Spring of 2020, but because of Covid-19, she will be doing it next year. Calliope also won first place in her age group in the Great Composers Vivaldi competition. When she grows up, she wants to be a violinist, conductor, and composer.
