Sea Chanteys and Maritime Music

South Street Seaport Museum’s monthly sea-music events Sea Chanteys and Maritime Music – the original NYC Chantey Sing – continues in-person and virtually on Sunday, April 2, 2023, at 2 p.m. ET, in the Seaport Museum galleries at 12 Fulton Street, NYC, and on Zoom.

This April, the Museum’s sea chantey event includes a 45-minute performance by local artists singing a variety of traditional maritime work songs and ballads. Attendees are invited to sing along with the featured guests or just sit back and enjoy their performance.

Following the set, the stage will open for a round-robin where attendees––in-person and virtual––can sing and share a chantey of their choice that will be heard by all. Singers of all levels, as well as listeners, are welcome to join in the choruses throughout the event, lead or request a song in the round-robin, or just listen as we present traditional maritime work songs and ballads on the first Sunday of every month. The event is FREE; registration is required. For more information and to sign up, visit seaportmuseum.org/chanteysing.
