My daughter played handbells as a youth, but this is SOOOO much more! An extraordinarily entertaining conductor, plus a cast of amazingly talented musicians, equals an unforgettable show! I can’t wait to see them again!
This concert is always great. What a talented group of people. We were in the second row so we got to see the intricacies that you can’t see from higher up. Only thing we did not like was the encore. Would have been much better if they would have stopped after Silent Night.
We so enjoyed this lovely performance! Would definitely plan to go to next year’s performance!
I recommend the Raleigh Ringers event holiday concert for anyone looking for a way to enjoy some holiday music that can appeal to all ages. The program includes a combination of liturgical and popular music and incredibly talented handbell ringers. Additionally, the musical director/conductor was fabulous.
Hubby and I have attended many concerts with The Raleigh Ringers and have never disppointed. They do a fantastic job of blending a little humor into the performance, which we love. I would , happily, recommend their concerts to families with children and tell them to take the grandparents along too!! RING ON RINGERS!!!!
I take my grandchildren to this concert every year. It is such a wonderful experience. The performance is always superb! It has a variety of music! We look forward to attending the performance each year!
I loved the mix of old favorties and beautiful new music. I especially enjoyed the arrangements by Sandra Ethun (sp?) And the Crazy Train Rock piece was fabulous! Dave does an excellent job in programming, including serious, moving pieces, interspersed with light and amusing ones sprinkled with RR antics. Hark the Herald Angels Sing was a beautiful way to move into the Silent Night Finale. It we well worth braving the storm that afternoon to experience such a top notch performance.
The Raleigh Ringers handbell choir is a great experience at any location.
This is my Christmas tradition! I have attended every year since Stairway to Heaven. Such a professional performance. Love the humor. This year RR played my 2 favorites - Christmas Eve Sarajevo and Lucy & Linus.
Could have been a 30 Minute Show if the conductor didn’t talk for 5 minutes between songs. One and Done. OBTW seats were not bad.
