Doug Miller, “Outdoors with Doug Miller”
- “Moab isn’t just the gateway to some of the most magnificent scenery you’ll find anywhere in the world. Once a year it’s also host to one of the more novel music festivals you’ll ever encounter. The unique drawing power of the Moab Music Festival …is that it fuses breathtaking desert landscape with high-caliber chamber music concerts. There aren’t too many summer music festivals where you can enjoy outdoor programs with mountains as a backdrop, or with a grotto as a concert hall.”
Edward Reichel, Desert News
- “Where else can you visit a desert and come home spiritually satiated with art, natural and man-made, so closely connected merely because it was equally sublime.”
Janice Graham, Pleasant Grove Review
- “The sky was clear and the music was nothing short of breathtaking.”
Janet Lowe, The Times Independent
- “The hallmarks of the festival are musical excellence, creative programming and an audience-friendly attitude.”
