Lewis Menzies is a classical singer from Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. His musical journey began in 2020 when he competed in the Rotary Young Musician of the Year, winning both the school and county rounds. This early success fuelled his passion for singing, leading him to pursue vocal studies at the Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) in Manchester.

Simon Callaghan performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, in parallel with a highly successful career as a recording artist. A favourite performer at the internationally-renowned Husum Festival of Piano Rarities in Germany, Callaghan’s recent sell-out concert was praised by VAN Magazine as a “cleverly curated recital full of discoveries” and by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung as “technically brilliant”. Callaghan has developed a wide following and appears on a regular basis in the UK’s major concert halls, and on tours to Asia, North America and Europe.
