We’re excited to be making our first-ever trip to Georgia soon – to present a concert of handbell duets at Christ United Methodist Church in Warner Robins. We’re already looking for our summer clothes, and anticipating a big change in temperature between Michigan and Georgia!
We’ll be performing some of our favourite 8-bell handbell duets. Our concert will include a selection of hymns, classical pieces, and traditional folk melodies. We’ll be playing Holy Manna, which was one of the very first pieces we ever performed as a duo. We’ll also play the poignant Australia ballad Moreton Bay, and several new and unpublished arrangements. It will be an opportunity to hear our eight-bell arrangements of the beautiful Japanese melody Sakura, and the energetic Gwerzy; a piece originally written by members of the Irish band Kila. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions, and to find out more about our handbells and how we play them.
On Sunday, April 2nd, we’ll play some more of our duets in the 10:00am service at Christ United Methodist Church. Then we’ll return to our home in Holland, Michigan, to get ready for our next performance!
We hope you’ll join us for our handbell concert in Warner Robins!
