Handel’s  Messiah Sing

Georg-Friederich-Handel1Sunday, December 3, 2023 at 3:00 pm

General Admission: $20 / Student with ID: $15

Our online box office is now closed, but there is plenty of room for you!  Admission is available at the door.

Our annual open sing of this holiday classic, which has been featured everywhere from the CBS Evening News to the Wall Street Journal, is a four-decade tradition and one of the most popular Sings in the city!

We’ll provide you with the score (or bring your own!), the conductor, and the pianist, as we sing popular choruses from Handel’s beloved oratorio.

Come make a joyful noise with us!

Get out your Christmas sweaters (ugly or otherwise!), your Santa suits and your festive holiday finery, and warm up your fa-la-las! Join us for our 49th annual Caroling Walk—and stroll with members of the Chorale through our historic West Village neighborhood, singing along as we lead seasonal favorites!

It’s fun for the entire family, it’s free (donations gladly accepted), and we even supply the music…which will feature some new carols, added this year by popular demand!

Come sing with us!
