I've wanted to participate in one of these for years, but I don't know where they take place. The big one's in Lincoln Center, but it's kind of pricey. Does anyone know of any others in the area? |

There are a bunch of em. I know William Patterson University does one, so does Princeton. I should imagine you could find some smaller ones in NYC that are free. Sorry not to be more helpful. I have done one of them once in Boston and it is a truely uplifting experience. "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take" Wayne Gretzky |

The NY Choral Society has cheap sing-ins in the summer. http://www.nychoral.org/pages/summersing.html I found this while looking for their Messiah sing-in. I didn't find it. I guess they discontinued it. It's been years since I was there. Tom Reingold There is nothing
