Steeple Concerts proudly presents New York Polyphony on Sunday January 21st at 5 PM

You will not want to miss the appearance of the renowned vocal group New York Polyphony at St. Paul’s Church in Westfield on Sunday, January 21st at 5pm. Steeple Concerts is delighted to present this acclaimed early music ensemble as part of its 2023-2024 concert series. The quartet, founded in 2006, is one of the premier vocal ensembles presenting early music today. The program will be followed by a reception at which you will have an opportunity to meet and greet the performers. The concert will be at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 414 East Broad Street, Westfield, NJ.

Critically acclaimed for a “rich, natural sound that’s larger and more complex than the sum of its parts,” (NPR) and as “singers of superb musicianship and vocal allure” (The New Yorker), New York Polyphony is one of the foremost vocal chamber ensembles active today. Their innovative programming spans Gregorian chant to contemporary commissions, and their focus on familiar and rare works of the 12-17th centuries brings early music to modern audiences.

Founded in 2006, the quartet’s discography includes two GRAMMY-nominated albums, and many of their releases have topped the “best of” lists of The New Yorker, Gramophone, and The New York Times. New York Polyphony tours extensively, performing in concert halls and participating in major festivals in England, The Netherlands, Norway, Germany, Spain, Colombia, Canada, and Taipei. 

The quartet has performed in all but eight US states and Steeple Concerts is thrilled and honored to add Westfield to the group’s growing list of concert venues. This program is sure to be one of the high points of the 2023-2024 local musical season. It will be a live musical experience to remember!

 

Tickets to the concert are priced at $30 for adults and $15 for students, and are available on the Steeple Concerts website at www.steepleconcerts.org. More information about upcoming concerts in the 2023-2024 season is also available on the Steeple Concerts website. Parking for the concert is available in the St. Paul’s parking lot off Euclid Avenue or on St. Paul’s Street next to the church.
