LOVELL — Whenever keyboard artist Dan Moore presents a concert, expect the unexpected. His appearance at Lovell’s Brick Church for the Performing Arts is going to carry forward his trademark programming, mingling musical styles with humor and intriguing insights.

Although he specialized in the organ when he studied at the Boston Conservatory, Moore loves the unique qualities of different keyboard instruments and styles, and he plays them all. In his youth, he played hymns in Sunday school, but also performed in rock bands, high school musicals and as accompanist to a chorus. (He still regularly accompanies the Choral Art Society in Portland.) Perhaps the most unusual item in his musical resumé: 10 years as a circus musician, touring New England with the Shriners’ circus. “The greatest fun,” he remembers, “was improvising while the good clowns were doing their shtick.”

Among his other professional activities, Moore is currently serving as music director at the Lovell United Church of Christ, where his responsibilities include directing and accompanying the choir.

Moore is showcasing his talent at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, July 27, at the Brick Church for the Performing Arts on Christian Hill Road in Lovell. Tickets (at the door) will be $10 for adults, $5 for children 12 and under.
