New York City Community Chorus is a non-sectarian community chorus located at 28th St. and 9th Ave. in Manhattan.
Our mission is to restore the joy of singing to day-to-day life, and to heal our community through singing. Since November 1994 we have brought the thrill of singing to hundreds of people, and our concerts have entertained thousands more.
Monday, February 13 is the final deadline for joining us this season. No audition—just show up at 296 Ninth Avenue at 28th street (use side entrance). We rehearse from 6:30 – 8:30. We hope to see you then!
