Holiday Concert with the
Saxtons River Bell Ringers
at the Ascutney House community room (next door to the library)
The Saxtons River Bell Ringers are an english handbell choir from
Christ's Church in Saxtons River, Vermont.
"A handbell choir is a group that rings recognizable music with
melodies and harmony, as opposed to the mathematical permutations used
in change ringing. The bells are typically arranged chromatically on
foam covered tables; these table protect the bronze surface of the bell,
as well as keep the bells from rolling when placed on their sides.
Unlike an orchestra or choir in which each musician is responsible for
one line of the texture, bell ensemble acts as one instrument, with each
musician responsible for particular notes, sounding his or her assigned
bells whenever that note appears in the music." Wikipedia contributors, "Handbell," Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Handbell&oldid=578446575 (accessed November 19, 2013).
The choir is actively seeking new members. Enthusiasm a plus -
experience is optional. For more information about english handbell
ringing please visit www.handbellmusicians.org .This
concert is sponsored by the Friends of the Weathersfield Proctor
Library. For more information about the concert, please call the library
