Donald Macleod delves into Cyril Scott’s interest in mysticism and occultism, including his clairvoyant connection with Mahatma Koot Hoomi. This was a period when Scott was socialising with some of the elite of British artistic circles, and also a time when he married the novelist Rose Laure Allatini, remembered for her 1918 novel Despised and Rejected.
