Blanche Honegger Moyse (/moʊˈiːz/; September 23, 1909 – February 10, 2011) was a Swiss-born American conductor who lived in Brattleboro, Vermont at the time of her death. She was particularly admired for her devotion to the choral works of Johann Sebastian Bach and her ability to draw deeply moving performances from both amateur and professional musicians. Soprano Arleen Auger has said of her, "I’ve sung Bach all over the world, often with people who are considered the best, and in my opinion no one is performing Bach any better than Blanche Moyse is doing it in Brattleboro."^[1]
