ABOUT Sara Chasse
Sara Chasse
Sara is a recipient of Presidential Honors at Riverside City College and graduated with highest honors (Great Distinction). Sara is alumni at Jacobs School of Music Indiana University Bloomington, California State University Fullerton School of Music. Her mother, Ruth always made sure she had all the lessons she needed and wanted. It was that kind of devotion that allowed Sara to learn so many instruments as a youth. Sara has performed in youth orchestras under the baton of the late Skitch Henderson, the father of the New York Pops and successor of (the great Maestro Arturo Toscanini) the post of NBC The Tonight Show (with Jack Paar and Johnny Carson ) as orchestra conductor. Skitch needed a harpist for the Orchestra and was highly impressed with Sara's musicality on harp (at the time she was playing trumpet). Sara has also attended Bavard Music Center Summer Camps.
