Brasstown Ringers Spring Concert Announcement Franklin Concert is April 28th
BRASSTOWN RINGERS – THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT!
POP MUSIC ON HANDBELLS
Author: Theresa Ramsey, Brasstown Ringers
The Brasstown Ringers community handbell ensemble will kick off their spring concert series – That’s Entertainment – on Saturday, April 27, 2024, at 7 pm at New Life Church in Hayesville, NC. Additional concerts will be held on Sunday, April 28th at 5 pm at the First United Methodist Church in Franklin, NC and Sunday, May 5 at 5 pm at St Luke’s Episcopal in Blue Ridge, GA. Although admission to all concerts is FREE, monetary donations are gratefully accepted. These donations help pay for the bells, music, and repairs.
This year’s program consists of a variety of pieces that will feature movie-themed pop music arranged for handbells. Some of the selections include: The Best of John Williams with “Theme from Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, the “Olympic Fanfare and Theme”, “Imperial March”, “Cantina Band” and the “Star Wars” theme; Pirates of the Caribbean; Mamma Mia; Disney tunes the Lion Sleeps Tonight and Beauty and the Beast and more! The audience will be invited to sing along with the bells on familiar favorites Over the Rainbow and On the Road Again. Performances by a twelve-bell ensemble and bell tree solo will help demonstrate how smaller groups can also be an effective musical alternative to a larger bell choir.
Six octaves of Schulmerich bells, seven octaves of Malmark chimes and assorted percussion instruments played by this group of seventeen advanced ringers helps showcase the beauty and depth of handbell music while spotlighting various ringing techniques. Brasstown Ringers was formed in September 1992 and today, the number of bells and ringers has grown as members travel from across Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina to ring together. The choir continues to meet weekly for practice at Oak Forest Methodist Church in Hayesville under the direction of Linda Sterrett. Each year, Brasstown Ringers perform a spring and winter concert series at various locations and upon request, small group ensembles are available to participate in worship services, club meetings, etc.
