The Ethel Cooper Scholarship for Piano was established in 1982 at the University of Adelaide by Mrs Decie Denholm from the royalties of ‘Behind the Lines One Woman's War 1914-18 The Letters of Caroline Ethel Cooper’, Sydney, Collins, 1982, for the purpose of founding a scholarship for students whose principal course is the piano.

Ethel Cooper (1871-1961) studied piano under Herr I.G. Reimann whose school was the genesis of the Elder Conservatorium of Music and subsequently spent many years of her life studying music in Leipzig.
