Featuring Emerging Artitsts:
Cheryl Losey Feder, harp
Phoebe Powell, harp

What’s better than the 47 strings of a gorgeous concert grand harp? The 94 strings of two of them! Former principal harpist of Sarasota Orchestra, Cheryl Losey Feder is now principal harpist of the Minnesota Orchestra. She will join Phoebe Powell, Sarasota Orchestra’s current principal harpist, for a heavenly program of music for the grandest of instruments. Their program will include Debussy’s Dances for Harp and Strings; and Caplet’s Masque of the Red Death for harp, string quartet and narrator.

“Swiping, stabbing, slapping and strumming her Salzedo Concert Grand harp, [Losey Feder] turned this customarily beatific instrument into a percussive vehicle that spoke in myriad languages and colors.”
– The Observer
