Tanto de meu estado me acho incerto,
Que em vivo ardor tremendo estou de frio;
Sem causa, juntamente choro e rio,
O mundo todo abarco e nada aperto.
É tudo quanto sinto um desconcerto;
Da alma um fogo me sai, da vista um rio;
Agora espero, agora desconfio,
Agora desvario, agora acerto.
Estando em terra, chego ao Céu voando,
Nua hora acho mil anos, e é de jeito
Que em mil anos nao posso achar ua hora.
Se me pergunta alguém porque assi ando,
Respondo que nao sei; porém suspeito
Que so porque vos vi, minha Senhora.

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
