Bell Ringing
Since the bell choir has kicked into gear for Fall 2002, I decided I should add the choir as an official "band". I've been ringing bells for years, both in Tulsa and here in Austin, and I really enjoy it. The music sounds really cool, I love the teamwork involved in playing in such an orchestral environment, plus all the weird notation in bell music is really fun. I generally play C4 and D4 (middle of the bass clef), which are great bells because they have a full sound but don't weigh 50 pounds! The bell choir performs about every six weeks or so downtown at St. David's Episcopal Church.
