In 1961\, he took up the post of lecturer in the School of Politics and Contemporary History at Salford University\, before taking early retirement in 1982. \nJames Mottram was a keen piano enthusiast\, and particularly enjoyed the works of Scarlatti\, Chopin and Debussy. It was his lifetime ambition to see an international piano competition staged in Manchester to celebrate the music of his favourite composers\, and to provide a platform for the next generation of talented pianists.
