nyc church christmas chorale

We are going to Manhattan Dec. 10 to 17. Can anyone recommend choir music at a local church during this period?

Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church has a professional choir. Think Broadway and the Met.

St. Patrick's for their high mass. Both are close to each other on Fifth Avenue. LMF

At St. John the Divine they're doing the Messiah on the 10th at 7:30pm. Paul Winter's Annual Winter Solstice is 15-17th.
