APU Handbells "Carol of the Bells"

The APU Handbell Choir playing "Carol of the Bells" at the Celebrate Christmas concert at Lake Avenue church in Pasadena. The blue you see is the white gloves glowing under blacklights. You can mostly see the higher bells...sorry!

you Guys are good!! did you ever hear of Ring Fest??

[eternalbando]

@TheCheesecurl I haven't heard of Ring Fest.  Is that an AGEHR event?

[TheCheesecurl]

@eternalbando no !!

[eternalbando]

@TheCheesecurl Oh. What type of event is it? A bell festival? Sorry-I've never heard of it! =p

[bandoSquirrel]

my bad...let me rephrase...standard tech, cymbals and bells emit the highest frequencies, normal mics, like on a camcorder muddle it out and you get that swishy piercing noise.

[eternalbando]

oh, ok. I understand. Ya, it was recorded on a digital camera with video recording capabilities. Nothing special.

I play the bass bells (c3 octave). HOW DID YOU MASTER ALL OF THOSE or did you split them?

We played this one at our `09 Christmas service. Four-in-hand for the top bells plus adding in the Dflat 7 was great fun, except for that last page turn.

I'm glad that I was not watching this in person because I would be completely paranoid that someone was going to come behind me with chloroform and then do unforgiveable things to me

Really, is this even necessary? Why on earth would anyone ever spend time to learn something such as this?

UN-believable!
