Raleigh Ringers.....my dream Bell "Choir"! From a ringer in a small Episcopal Church in NW Vermont. I have learned sooooo much about technique by watching your videos, especially your "Nutcracker", and have shared that with members of my group. Please, please come to the Burlington, VT area and give us a huge treat! Love you all!
Attended a bell festival in 2004, at which they performed. Their director, David Harris, was one of our directrs duringthe festival. It was an awesome experience. Even talked, albeit briefly, with David, one on one via a chance meeting (I was buying their CD's and he was there). He is a really nice person. GREAT GROUP.
David lead a handbell workshop for us (ringing God's Praise) in Ashevillle . He was wonderful and his group is outstanding. It hard to believe he has no music----it all in his head.
White/black sticks? Handchimes. Super long white/black sticks? Bass Handchimes Bells that sound weird compared to the others at the beginning? Petit & Fritsen handbells (aka P&Fs). Stand of bells in the way back left? Cymbells Not used in this one: their Whitechapel and silver melody bell set. So much equipment, yikes!

It takes a lot of people together to make beautiful music with hand bells like this. Nicely done. Thanks!😊
My favorite! ❤

Absolutely impressive!
Phenomenal! Such great inspiration for my elementary hand chime choir.
Love you guys. Amazing to know how much hard work is put into the fun that you show.
Such a fave
Oh. My. Goodness!! I want to play bells like that when I grow up!
So now, nine years later, are you?
We played this at our concert yesterday
very interesting version of the song
The hand bells are familiar... BUT WHAT ARE THOSE OTHER THINGS?!
White/black sticks? Handchimes.

Not used in this one: their Whitechapel and silver melody bell set. So much equipment, yikes!
In addition to those, we also have Deagan bells (also not used in this song). You can check out all of our equipment here: rr.org/About/Equipment
