At my concert on Apr 17, 2010, I set up for this piece incorrectly. Some of the 4iHs are "backwards" (ie, the wrong bell is in primary/secondary) and others are set up for the wrong hand.
This is an example of what I was discussing on the Handbell Podcast: I have practiced playing through mistakes often enough that I was able to analyze the situation and fix it WITHOUT affecting the musicality.
I put up a blog post detailing exactly what was wrong with the setup & what I did about it at my blog here:

Absolutely AMAZING how you were able to recover from that without a glich. Your experience definitely shows how we should even practice how to recover from mistakes.
