Free Events, Free Things to Do in New York City! Read More
Enjoy free concerts (classical, jazz, pop, rock, opera) in New York City and get free tickets to the concerts which are not free for general public, but are free for Club Free Time members!
Many people think that free concerts take place in NYC only during Summer, but nothing can be further from the truth: free concerts take place in NYC year round. Here are the numbers to support the previous statement: about 1000 free concerts take place in NYC from mid-September to the end of May; and about 600 free concerts take place during the three Summer months (that 600 number excludes June's Make Music New York as on that single day more than 400 free concerts take place in NYC to celebrate Solstice).
As the number of free concerts per a summer month almost doubles the number of free concerts per month during other three seasons, you sure hear more about Summer free concerts.
In addition, Summer free concerts get more publicity, as such major popular concert series as New York Philharmoinic in the Parks, Metropolitan Opera Recital Series, Summer Stage and Celebrate Brooklyn all take place during summer months.
In addition, it's of course lots of fun to spend your lunch or your evening listening to the music you love and to picnic along, but your soul needs those nourishing sounds during other seasons as well. So keep in mind that in New York City you can attend a free concert practically any day of the year, except maybe such major Hollidays as July 4th, Thanksgiving and the Christmas Day.
Now a little bit about the concerts that are not free for general public, but free to Club Free Time members: when a producer wants that special buzz of the 'full house' at a concert - Club Free Time members are welcomed for their enthusiasm and sophistication! They can get free tickets reserved at www.clubfreetime.com. All they need to do is to login to www.clubfreetime.com.

Master Class | Master class with a pianist
Austro-Russian pianist and composer Sergei Dreznin will give an open master class for interested students. Mr. Dreznin graduated from Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory as a composer and the Russian Academy of Music as a pianist where he studied with Professor Boris Berlin (1906-1995), one of Moscow's most revered if controversial music figures. Mr. Dreznin's master classes electrify participants, celebrating the joy of music and often coming close to a theatrical performance. His demonstration on the piano and his colorful verbal comments stimulate the students' imagination to then unleash hidden inner forces of which they were previously unaware. It enables a student to capture the dramatic essence of a musical piece using a multiplicity of technical tools.

Classical Music | One of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music
MSM Chamber Sinfonia with the New York City Master Chorale: Messiah Reimagined. About the Piece Handel's (1685-1759) Messiah is an English-language oratorio composed in 1741, with a scriptural text compiled by Charles Jennens from the King James Bible, and from the Psalms included with the Book of Common Prayer. After an initially modest public reception of its premiere in 1742, the oratorio gained in popularity, eventually becoming one of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music. Handel wrote the piece for modest vocal and instrumental forces, with optional settings for many of the individual numbers. In the years after his death, the work was adapted for performance on a much larger scale, with giant orchestras and choirs. In other efforts to update it, its orchestration was revised and amplified by (among others) Mozart.
