The Yale-New Haven Regular Singing has been gathering since January 2010 to sing hymns, fuging tunes, and anthems from the Sacred Harp and other collections of shape-note music.

We meet from 7 to 9 pm every week in New Haven: on third Mondays at Never Ending Books (810 State Street) and every Tuesday that does not immediately follow the third Monday in room 106 or 107 of Yale’s Stoeckel Hall (469 College Street). New and inexperienced singers are always welcome, and we’ll be happy to get you oriented. Singings are always open to all voices and identities, regardless of experience or perceived ability. No Yale affiliation is required.

Every year on the third Sunday in April, we host the New Haven All-Day Singing, which brings around 100 singers from the wider shape-note community together. Our 2026 all-day singing will be held on April 19.

To receive emails about upcoming singings, join our Google Group. For more information, contact Ian Quinn by email at ian.quinn@yale.edu. We can also be found on Facebook.
