You'll probably find that the violin part is on track 1. You need to re-assign the piano part to track 1. Details are on page 38 in the advances owner's manual. Be aware that you may have to change the file format to SMF format 0 as the piano can't edit format 1 SMF songs.
If you haven't got the manual, you can find it here: http://www.yamaha.co.jp/manual/english/result.php?div_code=piano
