Calendar of upcoming local singings

We are an informal, friendly group of people from the greater Albany, N.Y., area who sing Sacred Harp music together. Sacred Harp is traditional, a cappella, community harmony singing. All our events are free of charge and open to newcomers, all ages, all voices, and all levels of musical (in)experience. Loaner books and explanations are available at the singings. Please explore our website and find out more about us and the music.

LOGISTICAL DETAILS
  • We sing in the Great Hall of St. George's Episcopal Church in the Schenectady Stockade. The church's address is 30 N Ferry St 12305, but direct your GPS to 214 Green St for the parking lot. There is a door leading directly from the parking lot to the Great Hall, on your right just before you go down the stairs to the church. (No stairs involved: wheelchair accessible!)
  • As of May 22, 2021, we have returned to the traditional hollow square, singing close together without masks (masks optional). According to the CDC's guidance, this is a recommendable activity only for those who have been fully vaccinated against COVID.
  • There is plenty of space if you would be more comfortable participating from farther back in the room.
  • Obviously, do not come if you may be sick with COVID, or if the level of risk remaining in this event is more than you should run.
  • Recognizing that such a set-up may not be advisable for everyone, and that there are no perfect answers or arguments about some risk factors, please feel free to contact me or express to the group particular concerns, suggestions, etc.
