Additional Information
Moyer has redefined traditional piano recitals through his use of technology, often with his own original software. His MoyerCam provided the audience a view from almost every seat in the house of his hands and keyboard.
His performance exhibited an affinity for a wide variety of styles in both classical music and jazz, and his relaxed and witty commentary from the stage engaged the Barn Gallery audience in the heart of the musical experience.
Moyer has entertained audiences in more than 44 countries- and in such international venues as the Sydney Opera House, Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Windsor Castle, with orchestras in London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brazil, and Iceland- and across every region in the U.S. ranging from Boston, NYC, Baltimore and Washington D.C. to St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Milwaukee to Dallas, Houston and Los Angeles.
Critical praise from the New York Times refers to his work as “First class… His playing is clean, unmannered, and full of ideas and intelligence.”
