== History ==
New Amsterdam Singers formed in 1971 from the remains of the Master Institute Chorus. Associated with the Bloomingdale House of Music from 1972–1978, the chorus became independent in 1978 and operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization under the management of an elected board of directors. Noted for its "adventurous" programming〔Schweitzer, Vivien. ("Vowels Ring in New Suite for Chorus" ). ''New York Times'', 7 June 2010,〕 and "handsome" performances,〔Smith, Steve. ("Perspectives on Nature, After a Storm" ). ''New York Times'', 11 March 2008〕 the chorus presents three subscriptions concerts per season at venues such as Merkin Hall, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Immanuel Lutheran Church and St. Peter's Church at Citicorp. The chorus rehearses at Broadway Presbyterian Church on the upper west side of Manhattan.〔Wakin, Daniel J. ("At Broadway Pres, It's a Lively Scramble to Make Ends Meet" ). ''New York Times'', 17 November 2003.〕
In addition to performing lesser-known works by major composers, the chorus has commissioned works by Paul Alan Levi (2011, 2002, 1994), Ronald Perera (2008, 1999), Behzad Ranjbaran (1999), Thomas Beveridge (1987) and Frances Heilbut (1974) and has premiered works by Kirke Mechem,〔("Goings on About Town" ).
