There are 2 hymns I know of that pay respects to her:

''I sing of golden-throned Hera whom Rhea bare. Queen of the Immortals is she, surpassing all in beauty : she is the sister and wife of loud-thundering Zeus,--the glorious one whom all the blessed throughout high Olympos reverence and honour even as Zeus who delights in thunder''

and

''O royal Hera, of majestic mien, aerial-formed, divine, Zeus' blessed queen, throned in the bosom of cerulean air, the race of mortals is thy constant care. The cooling gales they power alone inspires, which nourish life, which every life desires. Mother of showers and winds, from thee alone, producing all things, mortal life is known : all natures share thy temperament divine, and universal sway alone is thine, with sounding blasts of wind, the swelling sea and rolling rivers roar when shook by thee. Come, blessed Goddess, famed almighty queen, with aspect kind, rejoicing and serene.''

They are found in temples and texts that describe followers singing them as they made offerings in her temples

The Druid has about the right of it. Further one of the workshops I went to discussed in great detail how dance figured in all worships of the greek and roman gods and goddesses. It looks like music is a forte of yours...and music is part of the ancient ways to commune with the gods. Geometry (ancient not modern), arithmetic, astronomy (not necessarily astrology, but ancient astronomy) and the study of harmony and music were the ancient studies of the Greeks and Romans. the laws of simple harmonics were considered to be universal and defined the relationship and exchange between movements and events in the heavens and the spatial and development order on earth. (See Robert Lawlor and the Philosphy and Practice of Sacred Geometry).

So if you play your music with Hera in your heart, there would be no greater form of worship!
