Vacaville: RiverBell Sacramento presents “Bells Ain’t Just for Christmas”
May 19 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
RiverBells Sacramento an independent adult consort of handbell experiences and experiments, is a CA non-profit and 501(c)(3) tax-exempt corporation.
In our twenty-fourth season, our revamped and redesigned website has drawn ringers both from the area and musicians coming in from out of the area. With a whopping 16 ringers this semester, our emphasis – aside from seasonal demands – has been to perform original music composed idiomatically for the English handbell choir, and to feature swing (Big Band) sounds on this unique percussion instrument. We hope this lifts up, thrills, and challenges both ringers and audiences. You will notice that today’s concert – for obvious reasons (look at the title, guys!) – is heavy on swing, blues, and jazz.
If you’ve never heard a handbell group before, or even if you have, this is the concert to give priority attention
