After the cancellation of Spring Ring 2020 and 2021, the Massachusetts Spring Ring handbell concert will return on Saturday, April 2, 2022 at Tewksbury Memorial High School, 320 Pleasant Street Tewksbury MA. After a morning and early afternoon of rehearsals, the attending handbell choirs will present a Free- will concert at 3:00. The participating choirs will all ring together two Massed ringing pieces. Choirs will also select to ring one piece in either the TIns division or the Coppers division. A few choirs have prepared to ring a solo piece, and the Bells of St. Matthew’s, from St. Matthew’s United Methodist Church in Acton have prepared “Three Rivers Rag” by Hart Morris as their solo presentation. Diane Burke, who directs handbell choirs in Lincoln, Sudbury, and Marlboro, will be the guest conductor.
Please join us for this concert. We would love to see lots of faces in the audience to focus on and share our love of handbell ringing. For more information, please contact Susan Lee, Director of Handbell Ministries at St. Matthew’s UMC Acton MA handbells@saint-matthews.org
