The University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music presents the 39th Annual Sholin Guitar Competition, honoring the memory of Norman Douglas Sholin (1951-1980).

Norman Douglas Sholin founded and designed the guitar degree program at the University of Arizona School of Music [and Dance] in 1974. He earned a BFA (1974) and an MFA (1978) in classical guitar from the California Institute of the Arts. He studied with teacher and musicologist Emilio Pujol in Cervera, Spain in 1972 and 1973 and played in a master class for Andrés Segovia in 1973.

The University of Arizona has become a major international center for the study of classical guitar. The Norman Douglas Sholin Memorial Scholarship Award, which is presented annually, promotes excellence in this segment of the arts. Through their gifts, donors honor the students that qualify for it, as well as the memory of Mr. Sholin, whose love for the guitar and its music still brings inspiration.

For additional information about the Norman Douglas Sholin Scholarship Fund contact Tom Patterson, professor of guitar, rtp@email.arizona.edu, 520-621-1157.
