Many people may know Sanford Moore as the founder, director, and arranger for the vocal group Moore by Four. People may also be familiar with his work as a composer and music director at theaters throughout the Twin Cities.

But many may not know that Sanford Moore is a classically trained pianist – and for his “Recital in Paradise,” he’s going back to his classical musical roots. He’ll be performing pieces by Beethoven, Chopin, and other classical composers along with a sprinkling of jazz and gospel music, highlighted by vocal performances by special guests to be announced.
