Handbells provide the perfect musical flourish to your event as no amplification is required and music can range from a full set up with tables and multiple instruments, to a small group of 3 8 musicians with a couple of stands. The bells -- and the musicians who play them -- always draw a crowd of fascinated onlookers. No amplification or power is needed -- no mixer, no cable, no mics, no hassle. Our professional musicians arrived wardrobed and ready to play.

Our professional musicians will arrive appropriately wardrobed for any occasion -- formal to casual. We use only professional handbells and equipment. We will work with you to provide precisely the type of performance you desire - from background music to featured group. With 9 ensembles, we can supply you with a full set up -- over 154 instruments, to a handful of musicians with two - four music stands and bells. We play a wide variety of repertoire form sacred to secular; classical to pop favorites.
Whether you are looking for wedding music, background music for corporate parties and events, retail events, festival performances, Christmas Tree lightings, private parties, hotel lobbies or large public venues, handbells delight audiences young and old with their mellow sound and novel appearance. Our bells are professionally polished and maintained and are beautiful to look at and to listen to.
During the Christmas season, especially, handbells are very popular with audiences as bell-ringing goes hand in hand with holiday traditions.

We need no additional equipment or set up. We can play with as little as 4 music stands -- which we provide, or, for a full set up, we need 40' of space to accommodate the tables.
