He performed his first concerto with an orchestra at age 15, and played with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at age 18.

Siem also professionally models having been the face of Dunhill London and Hugo Boss.

Siem is distantly related to Norwegian violin virtuoso and composer Ole Bull.

He plays a violin made by Guarneri del Gesu from 1735, also known as the d’Egville. The violin was previously owned by Yehudi Menuhin.
