Head and shoulders image of Dorothy Howard, winner of the Master Teacher Award in 1991.
Bio/Historical Note: Dorothy (Alice) Howard was born in Winnipeg in February 1929. At a young age, she began music and dance lessons, and later had leading roles in school and university productions. Dorothy graduated from the University of Manitoba with a BA, later earning a Licentiate in Music and a Master of Education. In the 1950s and 60s, Dorothy performed with the CBC Winnipeg Choristers, James Duncan Singers, Hollow Mug Theatre, and as mezzo-soprano soloist with the CBC Winnipeg Orchestra, the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, and, for 10 years, Westminster United Church. In 1969 Howard joined the Department of Music at the University of Saskatchewan, starting a distinguished 25 year career there. An inspiring teacher and mentor, she developed special and enduring relationships. Her students were consistent winners of scholarships and awards, many of them continuing to singing and teaching careers. Howard started an Opera / Music Theatre program and staged many productions. She also initiated a Master's program in Voice. In 1991, as a full professor, she was honoured with the Master Teacher Award at the U of S, given to an outstanding teacher chosen by students and faculty. Upon her retirement in 1994, she was made Professor Emerita and a scholarship for promising young singers was established in her name. Howard co-founded the Saskatoon Opera, and performed several times with the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra. She gave numerous solo recitals, many broadcast by the CBC, and was a champion of contemporary and Canadian music. Her adjudicating took her to almost every part of Canada. She was also an examiner with The Western Board of Music. Dorothy Howard died 1 March 2013 in Winnipeg.
