Johannes Brahms' "Neue Liebeslieder" is a collection of vocal quartets, solos, and duets accompanied by piano four hands, composed as a sequel to his earlier Liebeslieder Waltzes. Known for its lush harmonies and elegant melodies, the music explores themes of love and romance with emotional depth. The piece remains a beloved part of the art song repertoire, showcasing Brahms' mastery of both vocal and pianistic composition.

The Polyphonists (puh-LIH-fuh-nists) are a professional vocal ensemble founded from two households: soprano Amy Broadbent & tenor Matthew Hill, and mezzo-soprano Sylvia Leith & bass-baritone Edmund Milly. The word polyphony describes many independent voices interwoven in harmony, and that is our ethos: We are four soloists, but we come together to create music that transcends our individuality.
Since our debut in 2020, The Polyphonists have garnered a steady following and developed a reputation for sophisticated and broad-ranging programming. The Polyphonists were honored as National Finalists for The American Prize in Chamber Music Performance, 2023 (Professional Division), and have been featured in residence at the University of Maryland, Towson University, the University of Oklahoma, & Oklahoma Baptist University. Our repertoire spans from the early Renaissance through the current day, with a commitment to expanding the choral canon by premiering new works and shining a light on lesser-known gems of the repertoire.
