My question really is which is better, to sing in a chorus or to sing in the chorus? I thought the latter was correct, but somebody corrected to the former. I'm confused about which to choose.

If you want to say 'chorus' then use 'a chorus'. That's the most natural. 'The' is only used for 'choir'.

Then can I also say "My hobby is singing in the choir"?

Yep. "My hobby is singing in the choir" sounds perfectly natural.
Just for fun, another option is to say, "My hobby is choral singing".

Thank you very much for your instruction! My hobby is singing in a chorus, or my hobby is singing in the choir. The latter sounds more professional, so I'd like to say so in my speech.

Any time, English can be strange. ^__^ I agree, 'the choir' does sound more professional. Good luck on your speech!
