carol of the bells on handbells

[WeJustDanced]

I just started handbells and I have to play one of the harder parts, it's really challenging for me because I don't know how to read music.

[TheMuseAphelion]

My god, this is beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes. This has to be the most stunning arrangement of this piece I've ever heard.

[TheMuseAphelion]

[782sean]

Oh my! Those are HUGE bells! :O :))

[mvbarker79]

Do you have just a recording, like a cd? This is indeed an excellent arrangement, excellently played and sung.

[bellplayer]

[dancerseven]

Where can I find this arrangement of Carol of the Bells?

[1114wolfgirl]

For my school bell choir we're playing this versions of Carol of the bells. =)

[Han3SC]

EXCELLENT !!! To each and everyone of you,and the Director!

[mezzobrit]

My handbell choir played this version of Carol of the Bells last Christmas, where can we get the vocal arrangement for this? Is it something you guys put together?

[ThePureawesomness]

I have been looking for a video with handbells and choir. Thank you!! I'm sure the video was old but the audio is much better. Thanks again.

LOL LOL LOL to inclusum LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[jbdmed]

Poetry in Motion!

[Inclusum]

The video on this is strangely surrealistic. The players look like Oompa-loompas!

[Kookiez387]

i have never played this song with handbells but i can play carol of the bells

[hibud4]

me too how old are you?

[musicX13Xfreak]

i wish i could play the huge bells! they are my favorites! :D

[myspace1ew]

the quality sucks but the song rocks

[cuddlebuttons]

i love this unusual arrangement

[Xinriearath]

I'd hate to be the person who had to ring the ginormous bells. Talk about sore arms D:

[Peako73]

@Xinriearath The ones that they are ringing (looks like the lowest is about a G3 or so) are all under 5 lbs. Not too bad. Also, they are SO much more fun to play compared to the smaller bells.

[GloryB2Jesus]

@Peako73 I remember when I was like 11 i BEGGED my group to let me play the 'big' bells lols

[BryceTheNavajo]

@Xinriearath actually the aluminum bells are very light, but the brass/bronze bells get up in the twenty pound+ range

[GaaraLatte8]

@Xinriearath It's actually a good arm workout. Sure beats the shake weight.

[ZzTaintedzZ]

@Xinriearath You'd be suprised. They are no heavier than the C3 bell, just awkward due to the size.

[moneymusic22]

@ZzTaintedzZ You beat me to it. I've rung from C3 to C8. None of them are particularly 'Heavy', just gotta get used to the feel of them. And anything lower than C3 is aluminum, so it'd be lighter than most would think.

[sweetchick3667]

my old school had a bell choir..but they were better than this.

and they taught themselves with no help.

[misha606]

that's no spam, she just said :P

[wollmans]

check out harmonic bronze playing this song!

[marilynmanson199017]

wow i love it gorgeuos i love it its new creative but I never heard those words before I heard"Hark how the bells sweet silver bells all seem the same throw carols away christ mas is here bring good a cheer to young and old meek and the bold ding dong ding dong that is there song with joyful ring all caroling one seems to hear words of a good cheer from every where filling the air... and yadda yadda yadda but this one is AWSOME!

[crrkrby]

magical

[bellbuddy]

Wish I'd seen this performance in person! It's great!

Bells are among the oldest musical instruments in the world! Bell collectors, change ringers, handbell ringers -- they are all great!

[wstlyguy]

We attempted to do this version for our xmas eve 10pm service but because our whole bell choir is made up of chancel choir members and with it being Christmas night and all, we couldn't muster a vocal choir aside from the altos! So we did it as bell piece only and by the time we finished I think we rung our director off the chancel! Boy did we go fast!

[mage213]

this song always bring chills up my spine

[jascna82]

This is really really good!!!! I especially like the way the choir did their part.

[slunacourtier]

HOW AWESOME!

[Tustin2121]

The bells down in front must be heavy. They keep setting them down. :)

Beautiful. This is the best interpretation I've heard yet.

[tyefor]

Usually the bigger bells are made out of alumimun because they would be to heavy to play effectively otherwise, I play bells and that is the way it is with ours.

[Locuravamp]

I. Love. Handbell. Choirs. nothing else to say. :D

[konoka13]

i've done hand bells before and had to do the big bells. they are extremely heavy and it is really hard work for your wrist.

really cool video

[lillypad45]

i would expect!i play bells and i have to play the little ones!

[emily1994sd21]

i love this song but did you noticed the people cairing the big bells? wouldent those b hevey? if they r i feel bad for the people who had to ring them

[dancerseven]

Do You Play Bells

[fackinjacksack]

this is the first handbell video on YouTube that is good. not only are they all playing correctly, their form is really good as well

[colbertfan94]

my bell group does this too you did a great job

[RodCornholio]

Love the combination of voice & bell. A pipe organ bass line would be a nice addition.

[bleh2you]

holy crap! i sang and played this last year in high school! hahaha playing the f and g 6&7 + the sharps and then singing the high soprano part...AH! it was hard. lol

[ermaclob]

[queenanneboleyn]

We've done this arrangement several times at our church. I love it! It sounds wonderful. The bells are great and so is the choir.

[PPLrWierd]

[ladysun1969]
