Having a great time hanging out at the College Ring-In! Probably my favorite event HMA does every year. Playing the closing concert is always a bittersweet experience. — view on Instagram http://bit.ly/2QylqCO

For day 4 of Handbell Advent we have a fun little arrangement of “Fum Fum Fum”, written by Patricia A. Sanders and performed by Rezound! Clocking in at around 80 seconds, there’s a lot to unpack in this quick little video. From the perfectly placed marts to the wonderful tambourine playing, I love everything about this performance. If you’re ever in the Kansas City area, be sure to check this group out.

Day 3 of our Handbell Advent celebration brings us “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” performed by the wonderful Andante Handbell Ensemble. On it’s face this holiday classic by Bach doesn’t seem that hard, since there’s nothing particularly flashy about this chant-like hymn. But anyone who has tried to play this knows the eight notes…never…stop. Andante presses through the eighth note lines like a machine, never wavering in tempo or dropping a note. Surround that with the gloriously played melody and you have a world class handbell performance.

I also never noticed how much hemiola there was in this piece until I heard this group nail all the triplet over eighth note passages. Now I’m going to be listening for that every time I hear this piece.

Join us again tomorrow for day 4 of Handbell Advent!

For day 2 of our handbell Advent celebration we continue with another standard from the Nutcracker. Played at a break neck tempo, the talented Arsis Youth Handbell Ensemble blast through “Trepak”. Is it perhaps almost too fast? I’m sure someone in comments will say that. However, the reason I always love watching this group play is their relaxed ringing style. They all look like they’re having a blast, even while ringing obnoxiously fast. That is a look all handbell musicians should strive for!

Join us again tomorrow for more handbell vidoes!

Welcome to day 1 of The Handbell Blog’s Advent celebration. Over the next 24 days we will bring you holiday videos by handbell groups from across the globe. Today’s is one of my all time favorites. Under the direction of Mr. Toshikazu Yoshida, here are the ladies of Kinjo Gaukin University destroying this transcription of Tchaikovsky’s “Valse des Fleurs” from the Nutcracker.

Those of us who had the honor of playing under Mr. Yoshida’s baton at Distinctly Bronze West in 2016 can still vividly remember hos difficult this piece was. During all those runs I always felt like I was dancing a delicate dance between ringing quickly and flailing out of control. But I would gladly do it again in a heartbeat.

Join us again tomorrow for day 2 of our Advent celebration.
