Joy in Bronze, New England Ringers
Join New England's premier handbell ensemble in its 12th year. 14 energetic performers showcase a uniquely varied program, playing with sensitivity, discipline, and skill on 6 1/2 octaves of Schulmerich handbells and 7 octaves of Malmark handchimes.
The program opens with the pulsing tempo and insistent rhythmic figures of "Come All Ye Shepherds." Excitement and anticipation build to a mysterious "Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence." Sparkling "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," shimmering yet haunting "Stille Nacht," and exhilarating "Tidings of Comfort and Joy" inspire audiences to comment," I didn't know bells could sound and perform like that!"
