Polyphony UV is a group of intermediate to advanced singers in New England who enjoy singing the choral music of the Renaissance for fun
Let's sightread from a collection of CPDL scores that include these well known gems…snacks for all bodies will be available.

I hope, when I move to my new location at Our Savior Lutheran in Hanover, NH, in April that this will still go on and we can open it up to more times and singers.
Hope you can make it!!!!
