Harold and Grace Sanford - Their Lives Were Music

The Composers

Grace had majored in composition at Juilliard School of Music.

Her works The Presentation, Romanza & October Noon were featured on
 central Florida radio station as part of a 13 week series during the 
1976 bicentennial celebration.

Harold also was a Juilliard graduate, I’m assuming he also studied composition as well.

We have located more works of Harold and Grace. 
Looking forward to adding the manuscripts to this site in the up coming months.
