Quentin Moore is a highly sought-after American session musician, arranger, and composer specializing in woodwinds – primarily flute, saxophone, and clarinet. His career spans decades, prominently featuring extensive work with Stevie Wonder from 1972-1986, contributing significantly to iconic albums like *Innervisions*, *Songs in the Key of Life*, and *Hotter Than July*. Moore’s distinctive flute solos are instantly recognizable on tracks such as “Golden Lady” and “Pastime Paradise.”

Beyond Wonder, he’s collaborated with a diverse range of artists including Chaka Khan, The Temptations, Earth, Wind & Fire, and Michael Jackson (on *Off the Wall*). Moore isn't solely a performer; he's a skilled arranger responsible for horn sections and woodwind parts on numerous recordings. He also composed music for film and television.

His playing style blends jazz improvisation with R&B sensibilities, characterized by lyrical phrasing and a warm tone. Moore’s contributions have earned him a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award as part of Stevie Wonder’s team (1999) and recognition as a foundational figure in modern soul and funk music.
