A Harp Holiday with Friends

Cheryl Hein Walters (shown) will present “A Harp Holiday with Friends” at the free Golden Afternoons program.
At 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 13, “A Harp Holiday with Friends” featuring Cheryl Hein Walters, flutist Peggy Morehart and harp students, will be in the lobby at the Deane Center for the Performing Arts at 104 Main Street in Wellsboro.
This one-hour Golden Afternoons program is free for people 55 years old and up. Light refreshments will be provided.
A harpist, singer, poetry and story lover, Walters will intersperse light, classical holiday pieces and audience sing-alongs with her favorite holiday poems and stories. Those attending will be invited to pat, clap, sing or stomp along with gusto.
“I find myself reading aloud a lot,” said Walters. “Poems or stories followed by a harp piece gives your imagination a chance to rest, digest or chew on what you have heard. When I sing or read to others, I try to recreate the same magic of music and story I knew when I was growing up. ”
Walters taught elementary music in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas for 11 years before moving to Mansfield in 2007.
For the past 15 years, she has been teaching harp, voice and piano to private students and substitute teaching as well as doing public relations work. Walters is a church musician, playing many Sundays at St. James Episcopal Church in Mansfield. She also plays the harp for dinner parties, weddings, funerals or any special occasion and is the director of Hamilton-Gibson’s Choir, Too.
