BIOGRAPHY
Gregory Moore is an up and coming artist hailing from Fredonia NY. Greg grew up in rural Edinboro Pennsylvania, and began his musical career early in middle school having taken every music class available all the way through highschool. This would continue when he went on to study music education at Edinboro University. He could be seen in every single choir, band and musical and class that Edinboro's music department had to offer. Greg would go on to join Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, help found a chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi and bring music to all the community before graduating with honors and moving to Fredonia for his master's in performance. Greg studied with Dr. Daniel Brown, Dr. Daniel Burdick III at Edinboro and with Mr. Raymond Stewart at Fredonia. After graduating from Fredonia, Greg would go on to meet his husband Alex and together they traveled cross country teaching music in Colorado before returning to Fredonia to focus on the tuba.
Today Greg is currently applying for Doctoral programs, teaching low brass and performing with the Fredonia Tuba Euph ensemble.
When he's not doing music, Greg enjoys his time baking, cooking and spending time with his loving husband and kitten.
