GRAMOPHONE AWARD WINNER
GRAMOPHONE CRITICS' CHOICE
DIAPASON D'OR
DIAPASON D'OR DE L'ANNÉE

Britten never prepared the work for publication. It's a pity he couldn't have heard Stephen Layton's Polyphony!
John Steane - The Gramophone

Polyphony’s performances under Layton are musically impeccable, carefully wound and tuned, superbly balanced – a magnificent display of sheer beauty of choral sound, yet never lacking in intensity and delicate interpretive finesse.
