"Moyer revealed the composer's musical genius as vividly as his spiritual richness, taking full advantage of the cathedral's organ. …Passages of rapt reflection were shaped with a keen sense of import."  The Baltimore Sun“Moyer skillfully chose registrations that showed the range of color the instrument can produce and suited them perfectly to the music at hand…It's delightful to hear an organ recital where everything seems so right and the playing so much in the service of the instrument and the repertoire.” Cleveland Classical.com
Dr. Moyer resides in Shaker Heights, Ohio, along with his wife, organist, Dr. Kaori Hongo, and sons, Christopher Sho and Samuel Kazu.
