WGBH introduces Sing That Thing! — a new TV series designed to showcase the best amateur choirs in Greater Boston and beyond and reveal the passion, vitality, and timeless appeal of the choral experience. Sing That Thing! will highlight choirs representing local churches, schools, and communities. The show is a competition over approximately four months, and will include broadcast of performances as well as stories about the participating groups. To purposefully accommodate a deliberately broad range of singing styles and repertory, Sing That Thing! will have four competition categories: High School (8-60 members), College (8-60 members), Adult Small Group (8-16 members), and Adult Large Group (17-60 members).

The Choral Arts New England chorus directory currently lists 383 active choral organizations in the six New England states. Such an active choral community makes for a lot of great music! Here, I have tried to provide an overview of what is being performed this season. By necessity such a listing is limited and subjective, but hopefully it will be useful.
