Clifford Curzon won a scholarship at the Royal Academy of Music at the age of twelve, and when sixteen made his first bow as a soloist at a Promenade Concert. On leaving the Royal Academy of Music he studied in Berlin under Schnabel, and in 1929 made a tour of Germany. In 1931 he gave up his professorship at the Academy to fulfil his extensive concert engagements.
