Study harpsichord in San Francisco.
Study harpsichord in a setting dedicated to its flourishing.
Historical performance is a hallmark of SFCM, and the harpsichord department plays a key role. As a harpsichord student at SFCM, you’ll have extensive performing opportunities in both large and small ensembles, taking advantage of a small studio size. Our period instrument collection includes six fine harpsichords including instruments built by Bay Area master builders John Phillips and Kevin Fryer, a Walter copy fortepiano, a large clavichord, and practice pedal organ.
