Notes & Reviews:

The death of Phyllis Selllick in 2007 removed the last of the great British female pianists of her generation - artists who had begun to make their reputations before World War II and who found the esteem in which they were later held significantly increased by the work they undertook during the hostilities. She attended the Royal Academy of Music and the Paris Conservatoire. During the War she and her husband, pianist Cyril Scott, undertook many concert tours and engagements for the Allied Forces, including a tour of India. She made the first recording of Walton's Sinfonia Concertante with the composer conducting the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. She was a teacher at the Royal College of Music for many years.
