I consider Bob Moir one of the ‘wise men’ in the orchestra field. Throughout the many years I have known him, he could always be counted on as someone who saw the breadth and depth of any issue, and who had a really smart way of dealing with it. I have no reservation at all in enthusiastically endorsing and recommending him.”
—Henry Fogel, former President of the Chicago Symphony, former President of the American Symphony Orchestra League, and current Dean of Roosevelt University College of Fine Arts
