Jean Harvey was a Scottish violinst, pianist and music teacher. Harvey grew up in Scotland where she soon excelled in both piano and violin studies, playing a violin concerto with the Scottish National Orchestra at the age of seven. Lessons in London and at the Matthay School in Surrey followed together with a scholarship to study both instruments at the Royal Academy of Music (RAM). Early highlights of her career include performances of the Brahms Second Piano Concerto and Walton Violin Concerto in one RAM concert, and performances in a 1953 Prom concert of both Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto and Grieg’s Piano Concerto. Teaching was to form a central part of her life and in 1964 she joined the RAM teaching staff. www.abrsm.org International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHdroberts 12/9/2013 Rachael.Fragola 3/1/2022 e1394559-9102-4576-a54a-01476a5848cb
