ABOUT RICHARD
‘A smouldering musician, with incredible rhythmic precision’, Richard Moore has entertained audiences across the globe, from North America to Australia and New Zealand, as well as throughout Europe. Concerto appearances have included Lou Harrison’s Concerto for Organ with Percussion Orchestra (collaborating with conductor Thomas Søndergård), and amongst recent recording projects is a first recording of Elizabeth Poston’s Te Deum, and the premiere of Philip Moore’s devotional sequence Via crucis.
Richard is Sub-Organist at Christ Church, Oxford, where he articulates the liturgies of the Cathedral and is Deputy Conductor of the world-renowned Cathedral Choir. A prize-winning graduate of the Royal College of Music, he also read Music as Organ Scholar of St John’s College Oxford. Having been Organ Scholar at St Paul’s Cathedral, he went on to roles at St Martin-In-the-Fields, and Guildford Cathedral, where, with the choirs, he regularly broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and 4.
A ‘technically very confident’ musician who finds ‘fine colours’ on the organ, Richard holds the Soloist Diploma of the Royal Danish Academy of Music. In addition to his performing career, he is active as a researcher and writer, with interests in British organ culture in the second half of the twentieth century.
