  • 901 Ringers Handbell Choir

    Crosstown Arts East Atrium 1350 Concourse Avenue, Memphis, TN, United States

    Performance of holiday music and carols by the 901 Ringers Handbell Choir.

    With up to 12 ringers, this seasoned group of musicians can perform both religious and secular pieces. Unlike an orchestra or choir in which each musician is responsible for one line of the texture, a handbell ensemble acts as one instrument, with each musician responsible for particular notes, sounding his or her assigned bells whenever that note appears in the music.
