The Honolulu Chamber Music Series will present New York Polyphony in concert at 7:30 p.m. March 28 at the Cathedral of St. Andrew.
The four-man vocal ensemble combines ancient music with cutting-edge compositions — from unearthed music of the Renaissance to the “Missa Charles Darwin” (a composition using excerpts from “On the Origin of Species”), from traditional Christmas carols to the winning entries from an online Gregorian chant remix competition, according to a news release.
“NYP’s four albums have been called ‘painfully beautiful’ and ‘as clear as a mountain lake, as balanced as Big Ben’s clockwork, and as seductive as a Top Chef tasting menu,’” the release said.
Tickets are available at the door, starting at 6:30 p.m., or through outreach.hawaii.edu/community. General admission is $37; students, $12. Seating will begin at 7 p.m. Learn more about New York Polyphony at
