Cindy Moyer, was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She began
her violin studies at the age of six, at first with her mother, Carolyn
Moyer, and later in the Philadelphia area with Linda Wear Fiorre. Her
education continued at the Eastman School of Music where she studied
with Gerardo Ribiero, Catherine Tait and William Preucil while earning
a B.M., M.M. and D.M.A in performance and a M.A in Music Theory. Currently Cindy is an Associate Professor of Music at Humboldt State University in Arcata, CA, where she teaches violin, viola, chamber music, music theory, ear training, and music appreciation. Prior to moving to California, Cindy had taught at the Bethwood Suzuki School in New Haven, CT, and Eastern Illinois University. In the summertime, she has taught at the Sequoia Chamber Music Workshop, the Humboldt Chamber Music Workshops, Camp Encore/Coda (in Sweden, ME) and Appel Farm Arts and Music Center (Elmer, NJ). Cindy's current performance activities are varied, from solo recitals, to various chamber music projects, to concerto appearance with the Lancaster, Eureka, and Humboldt Symphonies. Her orchestral performance experiences include playing in the Rochester Philharmonic, the New Haven Symphony, the Sinfonia da Camera (Urbana, IL), the Mendocino Music Festival orchestra, and summer workshops with the National Repertory Orchestra, the National Orchestral Institute, and the Festival-Institute at Round Top. A recent review in the Lancaster Sunday News states that "Moyer's playing approached flawless achievement in her execution, with impeccable intonation and an attractive, tuneful approach to the phrasing." In addition to her performance activities, she serves as a clinician and adjudicator for pre-college students, is a frequent presenter at the California Music Educators Conference, was one of the authors of the American String Teachers Association String Syllabus, and has served as president of the California Orchestra Director's Association. In her free time, Cindy enjoys travel, museums, hiking, camping, canoeing, stargazing, reading, and attending theater, dance and music performances. |
