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). In a new poll by Gramophone Magazine they were named as one of the world’s leading Choirs ‘Stephen Layton's Choir have become renowned for both their sound and versatility – whether in early music, or contemporary works such as those of Eric Whitacre, they embody the remarkable tradition of British choral excellence at its finest.’
For more than a decade Polyphony has given annual sell-out performances of Bach’s St John Passion and Handel’s Messiah at St John’s Smith Square. These have become notable events in London’s music calendar and have been broadcast by BBC Radio 3 and the EBU. According to the Evening Standard ‘no one ... less

A Boy and a Girl
Stretched out on the grass
a boy and a girl.
Savoring their oranges, giving their kisses
likes waves exchanging foam.
Stretched out on the beach
a boy and a girl.
Savoring their limes, giving their kisses
like clouds exchanging foam.
Stretched out underground
a boy and girl.
Saying nothing, never kissing
giving silence for silence.
Poem by Octavio Paz

Recorded live on Friday, May 16, 2014, at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Concert Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese.
Today, this spring
Is time for walking on the soft earth
In sounds that sweeten the air
And reach beyond the long dark sleep;
For sun to warm the cheek,
And quicken breath;
A time to shed the griefs
That brown the spirit of beginning;
To trust the restless energy
Demanding space and speak of life,
My own, which recreates itself in you. less
