A little bit about us
This contemporary adult group plays a wide variety of musical literature. They ring 3-5 octaves of English handbells, which would normally require 10-12 performers. To accomplish that feat, they use many advanced
ringing techniques. This adds a unique visual dimension to their musical presentation. Their extensive repertoire spans the gamut from classical to pop, from sacred to jazz!
The ensemble maintains a very active performance schedule, which has included such venues as concerts, festivals, conferences, church events, civic clubs, weddings, and holiday presentations. They have performed at First Night Winchester, the Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival, The Homestead, and Shenandoah University. These talented musicians have served as both performers and clinicians at the Area III Handbell Director's Seminar, as well as the prestigious National Handbell Director's Seminar.
