Rollo Dilworth (MEd 1994)
Music is often described as the language of the soul – and one of its most prolific interpreters is a graduate of the University of Missouri–St. Louis. Rollo Dilworth, who was born and raised in St. Louis, is today a giant in the world of choral music, renowned for his multifaceted talents as a composer, conductor and educator. Rollo combines innovative compositions with an unwavering commitment to diversity and inclusion, bringing people together around choral music to learn more about each other and themselves.
Rollo’s own journey of music discovery began while singing in school and church choirs, and by age 11, he was already experimenting with music pitches and rhythms. After high school, he studied voice and piano at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, then spent a year teaching elementary school music while attending UMSL, where he completed a master’s degree in secondary education in 1994.
