The Hand Bell Choir provides a beautiful enhancement to the liturgy with the use of hand bells. The Hand Bell Choir performs at Mass on special occasions such as Christmas.
NO PRIOR MUSIC EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED!
A handbell is a bell designed to be rung by hand. To ring a handbell, a ringer grasps the bell by its slightly flexible handle - traditionally made of leather, but often now made of plastic - and moves the wrist to make the hinged clapper inside the bell strike. An individual handbell can be used simply as a signal to catch people's attention or summon them together, but handbells are generally heard in tuned sets.
