==Early life and education: 1892-1914==
Born in Cap-Saint-Ignace, Quebec, Morin studied solfège, music dictation, and piano with Gustave Gagnon and the piano and organ with Gustave's son Henri Gagnon in Quebec City. He gave his first professional piano recital at the Club musical de Québec in 1909. In 1910 he relocated to Montreal where he studied harmony with Guillaume Couture and the piano with Arthur Letondal. In 1912 he was awarded the prestigious Prix d'Europe prize which enabled him to pursue further studies in Paris at the Conservatoire de Paris and with private instructors from 1912-1914.
While in Paris, Morin studied harmony, counterpoint, and fugue with Jules Mouquet and the piano under Isidor Philipp and Raoul Pugno. He gave his first Paris recital in late 1912 in the salon of the wife of poet Charles de Pomairols. On 29 May 1913 he attended the world premiere of Igor Stravinsky's famous ballet ''The Rite of Spring''. In January 1914 Pugno died in the midst of their studies together, and the famed Spanish pianist Ricardo Viñes took his place as Morin's teacher. Pugno had previously performed the world premieres of several works by Ravel and Debussy, and he instilled in Morin a deep love for the works of these two composers.〔
