Her degrees are from Chatham University\, the University of Michigan\, and the Eastman School of Music (the University of Rochester)\, where she also earned the Performer’s Certificate in organ. \nDr. Evans has played recitals and presented workshops throughout this country on a variety of organ and organ literature topics. She also had a nearly 50-year career as a church musician (organist/choir director) for a variety of churches. Currently she is Chair of the OLLI at SOU Communications and Community Outreach Committee\, Dean of the Southern Oregon Chapter of the American Guild of Organists\, and a trustee of the Southern Oregon University Foundation. \nABOUT THE ORGAN\nThe SOU Music Recital Hall pipe organ was installed in 1974 after a nationwide fundraising effort led by Medford resident\, Agnes Flanagan. Worth Harvey gave the largest donation\, thus the organ was named for him. The instrument was built by Balcom and Vaughan\, a Seattle builder\, and has 36 stops with nearly 2000 pipes over three manual and pedal divisions. \nIn 2000 solid state stop action was installed. Nearly all money spent on the organ has been privately raised. Dozens of organ students have used it as a practice and recital instrument. Nationally- and internationally-known artists have played it\, and it was used prominently in the 1997 Northwest Regional Convention of the American Guild of Organists.
