‘No-one, but no-one performs Messiah better every year than the\nchoir Polyphony under the conductor Stephen Layton’ (Evening\nStandard)

\n

Polyphony and Stephen Layton’s live Messiah at St John’s Smith\nSquare has become one of the highlights of the musical season. The\njoyful sincerity and urgent brilliance of the performers has\nbrought the familiar story to life again and again. Now this\nwonderful experience is available on disc, recorded in 2008 for a\nnew release that will surely prove a strong competitor in a\nnecessarily crowded market. Polyphony is joined by the Britten\nSinfonia and a quartet of magnificent young soloists – all\nvariously acclaimed as the premier Handel singers of the new\ngeneration.
