about

This ten-track album celebrates NYCC's triumphant 2021 return to in-person singing after a year and a half of isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. We rehearsed outside in the dark and the mud, we sang through masks, we fogged up our glasses, and we made some beautiful music.

We hope you enjoy listening to this album as much as we enjoyed making it!
