Free Events, Free Things to Do in New York City!  Read More

135 free concerts take place New York City right now! In addition, Club Free Time members get free tickets to the concerts which are not free for general public, but are free for our 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! All they have to do is to login to www.clubfreetime.com and make a reservation.

As for the plethora of free concerts which take place in NYC year round, on weekdays and weekends, during lunch time, late afternoons and various evening hours: many people think that free concerts take place in NYC only during Summer, but nothing can be further from the truth.

Here are the numbers so you could see for yourself: 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.

So please keep in mind that whether it's a weekday or a weekend, a holiday or just a regular day or a weekday night, you can alwasy count on Club Free Time when you want to listen to your favorite music, free of carge.

Classical Music | Bach at Noon


The organ works of J.S. Bach (1685-1750) offered in 30-minute meditations. Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is known for instrumental compositions such as the Brandenburg Concertos and the Goldberg Variations as well as for vocal music such as the St. Matthew Passion and the Mass in B minor. Since the 19th-century Bach has been generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. "The term 'baroque' has been widely used since the 19th century to describe the period in Western European art music from about 1600 to 1750... Many famous composers from the first part of the baroque period came from Italy and have a link with Venice, including Claudio Monteverdi and Antonio Vivaldi. Monteverdi was born in Cremona, but moved to Venice where he was 'maestro di capella' at the San Marco basilica. Vivaldi was born in Venice and was one of the greatest baroque composers. It is thanks to these strong musical traditions of Venice that we have today's music. Without Venetian church music and Monteverdi's advances with polyphony, the great traditions of choral music in England, France, and Germany would never have developed. Without the operas written by Monteverdi, Cavalli and Vivaldi, not only would the later styles of opera never have been invented. There would be no basis for the American Musical or the German and Viennese Operetta, the Spanish Zarzuela, and even rock, pop, and contemporary music as we know it." The Venice Insider Bach at Noon concerts take place every Tuesdays through Fridays, from September 10, 2019 to May 20, 2020.

In this program, the Sonata will be surrounded by Bach's Toccata in E Minor and Cesar Franck's monumental Prelude, Chorale, and Fugue, offering an opportunity to reflect on the influences on and from Beethoven. Pianist Raj Bhimani's concerts are hailed by the New York Times as "virtuosic, heartfelt and eloquent." Time Out NY noted him as being a "gifted and highly expressive pianist." Performing regularly across North America and Europe, he also makes frequent appearances in India. In New York, where he resides, he appears often at Lincoln Center as well as at other venues.

Classical Music | Organ Recital With David Briggs


David Briggs, organ. David Briggs is regarded as one of the world's finest improvisors, and now works as a concert organist. Briggs is a composer of choral and organ music, and has also transcribed many orchestral works into versions for solo organ, as well as many of Pierre Cochereau's recorded improvisations. In 1983 he received the Countess of Munster Award to study Interpretation and Improvisation with Jean Langlais in Paris, with whom he furthered in his interest in the art of improvisation by his transcriptions of the recordings of the late Pierre Cochereau. Transcribing the remarkable improvisations from Cochereau's cassette recordings took eleven years. Briggs' subsequent performances and recordings of them earned him his initial acclaim. He was also the first British organist to win the Tournemire prize for improvisation at the St Albans International Organ Festival.

Classical Music | Bach Vespers: BWV 56 Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen


Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen (lit. "I will gladly carry the cross-staff"), BWV 56, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. The text, by Christoph Birkmann, describes the Christian life as a voluntary journey "carrying the cross" as a follower of Jesus. The words indirectly refer to the prescribed Gospel reading, which says that Jesus traveled by boat. The poet compares life to a sea voyage, and at the end yearns for death as the ultimate destination. Called an "artist worth keeping an eye on" by the Washington Post and noted for "clarity and fire" by the New York Times, Jonathan is a member of the Grammy-nominated Choir of Trinity Wall Street in New York City and performs regularly with ensembles across the United States including the Clarion Music Society, Musica Sacra, Antioch Chamber Ensemble, Spire Chamber Ensemble and the Santa Fe Desert Chorale. He has shared the stages of the Barclays Center, Alice Tully Hall & Avery Fischer Hall at Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, the John F. Kennedy Center, the Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Walt Disney Concert Hall with such groups as the New York Philharmonic, the Studio de Musique Ancienne de Montreal, Les Violons du Roy and La Chapelle de Quebec, among others.

Classical Music | Bach at Noon


The organ works of J.S. Bach (1685-1750) offered in 30-minute meditations. Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is known for instrumental compositions such as the Brandenburg Concertos and the Goldberg Variations as well as for vocal music such as the St. Matthew Passion and the Mass in B minor. Since the 19th-century Bach has been generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. "The term 'baroque' has been widely used since the 19th century to describe the period in Western European art music from about 1600 to 1750... Many famous composers from the first part of the baroque period came from Italy and have a link with Venice, including Claudio Monteverdi and Antonio Vivaldi. Monteverdi was born in Cremona, but moved to Venice where he was 'maestro di capella' at the San Marco basilica. Vivaldi was born in Venice and was one of the greatest baroque composers. It is thanks to these strong musical traditions of Venice that we have today's music. Without Venetian church music and Monteverdi's advances with polyphony, the great traditions of choral music in England, France, and Germany would never have developed. Without the operas written by Monteverdi, Cavalli and Vivaldi, not only would the later styles of opera never have been invented. There would be no basis for the American Musical or the German and Viennese Operetta, the Spanish Zarzuela, and even rock, pop, and contemporary music as we know it."

Concert | Concert And Panel Discussion With Tony Nominated Actress


Tony-nominated actress and The New York Times columnist Melissa Errico brings a special concert and panel discussion, lit by her unique gift for both singing songs and speaking sense, devoted to one of her mentors, the late, great French composer Michel Legrand. Since originating the lead in his sole Broadway musical, Amour, Errico has had a special affinity and understanding for his music and its meanings. On this evening, she'll sing a few Legrand classics, among them "The Summer Knows" and "Windmills of Your Mind", and will be joined by some leading critics of theater and French song, including the writer Will Friedwald and Delphine Selles-Alvarez of French Institute Alliance Francaise, in a conversation about the constant back and forth in Legrand's life and music between France and America, and why that interchange moves us so much. She'll also be joined by Todd Ellison, musical director of the Philly Pops and conductor of the original Broadway production of Amour - and there'll even be a special guest appearance by her own father, concert pianist Michael Errico. Together, Legrand's music and Errico's mind will take us on a wild flight between jazz and chanson, Broadway and ballades, Nouvelle Vague cinema and Hollywood movies, New York and Paris - and then gently take us home.

Concert | Ethiopian-American Singer and Composer Rocks the Stage


Known for her electric stage presence and her galvanizing concerts, Meklit has rocked stages from Addis Ababa (where she is a household name) to San Francisco (her beloved base), as well as NYC, London, Montreal, Nairobi, Rome, and Cairo. The Ethiopian-American singer and composer returns with her new body of music, Antidote. Written as an ode to all that keeps us going in troubled times, the songs center connection, collective unity, music, creativity and the digging it takes to hold on to those life rafts that lift us. With Ethiopian jazz as a sonic palette, Antidote is grounded in Meklit's work as a composer of migration music. Tonight, in this Lincoln Center commission, Meklit previews these songs for the community that called them forth.

The public loved the band and its female flute player who was at the center of all the attention. Coined as the first woman flutist to play Charanga music in the United States, Andrea Brachfeld burst into the spotlight and has been creating and playing this music, and many others, ever since. After a brief hiatus from the music scene, Andrea Brachfeld and Son Charanga was created in 2003. Now the group has been reconfigured once again with Bill O’Connell on the piano, Ruben Rodriguez on the bass, Willie Martinez on drums, Chembo Corniel on the congas, violinists Sam Bardfeld and Ali Bello, and vocalists Robert Meir (currently with Charanga '76) and Willy Torres. From decades of Charanga ‘76 hits to the original music of flutist Andrea Brachfeld, this band will reignite your passion and is sure to get you up and dancing.

Concert | Carnegie Hall Citywide: Tropical Punk and Hip House


There’s a message behind Maluca Mala’s music. Her inspiring lyrics, sung in Spanish and English, encourage Afro-Latinas to be proud of their identity, push against European beauty standards, and reject gender stereotypes. Fusing hip-hop and merengue—a dance rooted in her Dominican heritage—with electronic dance music, Maluca Mala has dubbed her style “experimental tropical punk, ghetto tech, and hip-house.” It’s won her a large fan base, including Grammy-nominated singer Robyn, with whom she recently collaborated.

Concert | Chamber Singing: Otomae Meets Hildegard von Bingen


Otomae (1085-1169) was a Japanese singer and lyrical poet renowned for her presentations of popular music and the vocal genre known as imayo. On the other side of the world, St. Hildegard, also known as Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179), was leading communities of Roman Catholic nuns at Rupertsberg and writing poetry and music inspired by her 26 spiritual visions of a mystical life beyond our own, described in her text Scivias. The Barnard-Columbia Chamber Singers, in cooperation with the Japanese Department of Columbia University, celebrate the lives of these two remarkable medieval women in poetry and song.
