Eileen Joyce, whose talent as a pianist was discovered by Percy Grainger in childhood, began studying with Artur Schnabel and Robert Teichmüller at the Leipzig Conservatory in 1927. In 1930 she was introduced to conductor Henry Wood, who arranged for her debut as a concert pianist at one of his well-known Promenade Concerts. She subsequently became both a well-known concert pianist and a recognized pianist for radio concerts. During World War II, she performed with the London Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of conductor Malcolm Sargent in numerous cities in Britain destroyed by the bombardments of the German Luftwaffe.After the war ended, she undertook worldwide concert tours alongside numerous renowned orchestras, performing her repertoire of over fifty piano concertos and other musical programs. Her repertoire included pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Frédéric Chopin, Ernst von Dohnányi, Enrique Granados, Edvard Grieg, John Ireland, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Maurice Ravel, Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich, Cyril Scott, Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin, Joaquín Turina, which she also released on numerous record labels.

She also became known for her work on film scores such as Encounter (1945), for which she scored Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 2nd Piano Concerto, and The Seventh Veil (1945), and Wherever She Goes (1951), a film adaptation of her own childhood.
