Central Coast Harp Workshop

Picturesque Central Coast California Site

CCHW, a musical weekend to remember at picturesque Morro Bay, California between famed Pismo Beach and Hearst Castle “We spend time on the individual needs of the participants whether it is repertoire, interpretation, technique, stage presence, and ergonomics. Chamber music and ensemble playing is a special opportunity.”
