.: NEW YORK POLYPHONY is rapidly gaining a
reputation as one of the finest classical vocal
ensembles of a new generation. Fusing elegant vocalism with expert ensemble singing, the four men deliver dynamic, historically-informed performances in a range of styles. From the simplicity of plainchant to the dense chromaticism of contemporary works, the New York Polyphony sound is strong, unified and distinctive.

The members of NEW YORK POLYPHONY maintain active performing lives, each bringing a diversity of experience to their craft. Countertenor Geoffrey Williams is in growing demand as an early music specialist throughout the United States, performing regularly with groups such as Vox Vocal Ensemble, St. Thomas Choir of Men and Boys, and Early Music New York. Tenor Geoffrey Silver, a native of the United Kingdom, began his musical career as a Chorister of Westminster Abbey and later sang at Trinity and St. John's Colleges in Cambridge. Baritone Scott Dispensa, a graduate of The Juilliard School, has performed extensively as a soloist equally at home in classical music as in contemporary musical theater. Bass-baritone Craig Phillips enjoys a successful operatic solo career, performing with companies throughout the United States including New York City Opera, Glimmerglass Opera, and Florida Grand Opera.
