I believe that Phi Mu Alpha is still a part of NIMC, although they withdrew from PFA due to changes within their organization. (I'm sure MysticCat can verify or correct me).
The other members are Kappa Kappa Psi, Tau Beta Sigma, Delta Omicron, Mu Phi Epsilon, Sigma Alpha Iota & Phi Beta.

Yes, NIMC does still exist, and yes, Sinfonia still participates in it.
It's probably worth clarifying what NIMC is and isn't though. It's not an organization like NIC, NPC or NPHC that regulates member orgs in any way or governs how they relate to each other or to campuses. Rather, it's an annual meeting of the national presidents of the participating GLOs.
Delta Omicron, Mu Phi Epsilon and SAI have entered into a separate agreement requiring that when at least two of those orgs have chapters on the same campus, those chapters will form a Campus Interfraternity Music Council. CIMCs can also be formed on other campuses if desired, and chapters of other orgs that participate in NIMC can also participate in a CIMC.
As far as the PFA goes, Phi Mu Alpha withdrew in 2007 because our leadership had been unable to resolve the conflict between being a social fraternity (which we were founded as and which we have officially been classified as since the 80s) and the professional GLO focus of the PFA.
