Since then the choir has performed and recorded regularly to great critical acclaim throughout the world. Recent reviews declare Polyphony ‘one of the best small choirs now before the public’ (Telegraph) and ‘possibly the best small professional chorus in the world’ (Encore Magazine, USA).

Since the inception of Ghana Methodist Students Union (GHAMSU) nationwide until 2004, the union had no choir.
