Are you a singing lawyer, paralegal, legal proofreader/secretary, legal administrator or law student with an altruistic as well as artistic spirit? Would you like to join a flexible, congenial singing group honored for its excellence in public service and featured on NY1 News as "New Yorker of the Week" for "lifting spirits with its music"? The City Bar Chorus ("CBC") has openings for new members in all sections (especially soprano 2s and tenors). Our next auditions (brief, private and low-pressure) will be held in August.

We rehearse three Tuesday evenings per month, from 6:45 to 8:15, in midtown Manhattan (Radio City/Rockefeller Center area) to produce what our audiences describe as a rich, professional-quality sound. In addition, we provide a venue for like-minded legal professionals to meet and sing together in a warm, fun and supportive environment.

Music-reading or sight-reading ability is helpful but not required if you have a "good ear." While many of our members have prior choral experience, some of our best performers got their start singing karaoke — or in the shower!

If you work in a law firm, corporate or government law department, court, law school or any other legal setting (whether as a lawyer or non–lawyer) and would like to join us in the 16th season of our rewarding musical outreach mission, please e-mail us at membership@citybarchorus.org.
