1.22 Bolin Chair of Piano
March 8, 2005
The Dolores P., D. Phil, and Aurora S. Bolin Distinguished Chair of Piano
was established in 1981 through the generous gift of Mrs. Bolin n memory of
her husband, Wichita Falls oilman, D. Houston Bolin. In the 1999-2000
academic year D. Phil and Aurora S. Bolin formally established a second fund
in further support of the Chair. The Chair was endowed to allow Midwestern
State University to enhance its high level of pianistic and musical
excellence. Past holders of the Bolin chair were Dr. Peter Armstrong, Julie
Bees, and Nancy Boston.
Dr. Ruth Morrow is the current Bolin Distinguished Chair of Piano. She holds
degrees from Indiana University (D. M., Piano Performance and Pedagogy),
Eastman School of Music (M. M., Piano; M.A., Musicology), and Whitman
College (B.A., Music, Philosophy). With a background which spans all musical
styles and includes performances throughout the United States and in Europe,
Dr. Morrow brings depth, breadth, and enthusiasm to her position as the
Bolin Chair.
