Susie Allan

British pianist Susie Allan studied at Worcester College, Oxford, as a Hadow Instrumental Scholar, and Accompaniment at the Guildhall School of Music in London. She won the Accompaniment Prize, Gerald Moore Award and a Geoffrey Parsons Memorial Award. She has accompanied many masterclasses at the Britten-Pears School and elsewhere, and has been a Professor of Accompaniment at the Royal College of Music and the Royal Welsh College of Music. She has performed all over Britain and Europe, and has made recordings and broadcasts for the BBC and Channel 4, with a variety of well-established singers, but in particular Roderick Williams, with whom she has a long association. Together they have appeared at home and abroad, last year performing Schubert at Schloss Atzenbrugg, home of the original Schubertiade. She lives in south Shropshire with her three children.
