Harp Ensemble Concert at the Museum of Early Trades & Crafts



On Sunday, January 6th at 2:00 PM the Museum of Early Trades & Crafts will host an afternoon Harp Ensemble featuring harpist Odarka Stockert and the Harpantics. 

Join musician Odarka Stockert as she gathers an ensemble of her fellow harpists in one unbelievable afternoon of music.  Be swept away with the beauty of the sound of this harp ensemble and enjoy.

Odarka Polanskyj Stockert is an accomplished harpist with a repertoire spanning the centuries — from Classical to Broadway to Folk. Based in Millburn, New Jersey, she performs on both the concert pedal harp and the folk harp, and is available to play a variety of engagements; including weddings, corporate functions, holiday concerts, medieval events, and children’s programs.

Odarka was a long time student of celebrated concert harpist, the late Leone Paulson, of South Orange, New Jersey, with whom she performed as a member of the Paulson Harp Ensemble. She spent several summers in Dublin, Ireland, in workshop studies and participating in the O’Carolan Irish Harp and Granard Harp Competitions, winning awards and honors in both.

She is also a collaborator of the Yara Arts Group based at the La Mama, ETC in New York and has performed in many Yara events and productions. Additionally, she is a founding member of Glendalough’s Muse, a celtic flute and harp duo and Suenos del Alma, a latin inspired harp and violin duo.  Odarka lives in Millburn, with her husband Thomas, and daughters Sophia and Ariadna.
