Handbell Showcase Concert

The 9th Hong Kong Handbell Festival

Description

Description

Mass ringing is a kind of handbell ensemble involving many teams of ringers. With over a hundred ringers performing on stage, audiences are attracted by the stunning sound of handbells with beautiful ringing movements. Since handbell is an instrument that requires a high degree of cooperation among the ringers, performing in a mass ringing is a great opportunity for ringers to promote their ringing techniques and to fulfill their musical aspirations. It also guarantees ringers with a breadth of ringing experiences enriched by new friendships and teamwork for inspirational music. Audiences and ringers are both fascinated and immersed by the stunning massive sound of handbells.
