Christine has performed numerous solo recitals in many languages, including in Granada and Madrid with Festival de Canción Española, Trinity Concert Series in New York, and the Library at Lincoln Center. Merkin Concert Hall, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and the Old Stone House.  She made her UK debut at the Paxton Chamber Music Festival in Scotland with Schönberg's Pierrot Lunaire, and has premiered many new works by living composers, including Richard Thompson's song cycle The Shadow of Dawn and the NYC premiere of his opera The Mask in the Mirror, Andrew Rudin’s Masha’s Arias, and works by Michael Rose, Kareem Roustom, Richard Cameron-Wolfe, Steve Gerber and Zaid Jabri with the Brooklyn New Music Collective. In 2013, she curated and performed, to critical acclaim, in Nearer to East – Chamber Music from the Arab World, a program which featured compositions by Arab and Arab-American composers in one recital at the Bruno Walter Auditorium in the Library at Lincoln Center in New York City.  Recordings she has made include Christine Moore - Arias with the Bulgarian National Radio Symphony Orchestra (Musical Concepts, 2006) and the soon-to-be-released From Al Andalus to the Americas–An Odyssey of Spanish Song (Meridian Records, UK).
