For our duet performances, we play Malmark handbells. These quality instruments are made in Pennsylvania, USA. We also have an antique set of Taylor handbells from England. We sent that set overseas for restoration a couple of years ago, and they’re once again sounding beautiful! We’ll be writing more about these in the not-too-distant future. In the meantime, here is some information about the handbell techniques we use to play Choraegus handbell music:
