Polyphonia (Group)

History

Polyphonia is Montengarde's Music Group started by Lady Margareta vanden Velde in 2003 as a choral group determined to sing and perform period songs from memory. Polyphonia has self-recorded 2 CD's "Music for Christmas and Any Other Season" and "Polyphonia Puts the F in F Sharp." As of 2011 the group is still meeting regularily to practice and will often perform at one or two events a year.
