Handbells were originally designed as practice instruments for bell tower ringers and handbell choirs have become a worldwide tradition.  From the sparkle of the smallest bell to the booming resonance of the largest bell, the acoustic brilliance of the full bell choir is thrilling to hear live. This performance combines the magical sound of the bells with all the colours of the orchestra to perform wonderful arrangements of well loved carols that will put everyone in a festive mood.
 
See it, Hear it, Love it!
