Abstract:

The Raleigh Ringers, a group of handbell musicians, organized in Raleigh in 1990. The group has the most extensive collection of handbells and bell-like instruments owned by a single performing group in the world. The ringers perform original tunes as well as religious and secular selections. Beyond performing, the Raleigh Ringers sponsor and participate in workshops, tours, and other educational opportunities; help novice bell ringers with their craft; and encourage handbell composers to create new works.
