This is the completely revised 2023 "Handbell Ringers Bible". I listened to all your comments and have made this even more comprehensive and easier to learn from.
A set of handbells creates ONE musical instrument. They are always ‘in tune’ and most ringers play only two bells plus their accidental, making it one of the easiest musical instruments to learn and a lot of fun to play. Having said that, to play any instrument well, you need to study and practice.
You don’t need to be a musician to begin to play bells but you will be a musician once you have mastered the instrument and its techniques. If you can count to four and know your left from your right, you have the necessary qualifications. You don’t need a deep understanding of music theory. I have selected the parts of music that you do need, making it as simple as possible.
It is all too common for new handbell ringers to be thrown in at the deep end with just a short explanation of how to ring the bell, and off they go playing in an existing handbell choir. I have created this Method Book, full explanation of all the terms and techniques, training videos as well as handbell music notation to make learning handbells more structured and informative.

Download or read book Hymns for Organ and Carillon Chimes Or Handbell Choir written by Noel Jones and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Playable arrangements for organ written for playing an organ with carillon, chimes or handbell stops. Hymn tunes in this book: Let Thy Blood in Mercy Poured Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts Here, O My Lord, I See Thee Face to Face Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee O Lord, I Am Not Worthy Jesus, My Lord, My God, My All Jesus, Jesus, Come to Me Jesu Dulcis Memoria Lord, Who at Thy First Eucharist Bread of Heaven, on Thee We Feed Draw Near and Take the Body of the Lord Blessed Jesus, We Are Here Bread of the World, in Mercy Broken Pange, Lingua, Gloriosi Jesus, Priceless Treasure Carillon bells once were only heard by people outside the church, while only chimes were sometimes heard playing with the organ. Today carillon bells can be heard inside the church as well, some due to using microphones in the steeple carrying the sound to speakers in the church, but more commonly today through digital bell carillon systems that may also play from the organ and be heard in the church. This series of playable arrangements of hymn tunes are written to expand the scope of music for organ playing with carillon, chimes and organ handbell stops. With the richer sound of carillon bells and handbells, the series includes pieces that are composed to as Preludes but also as Postludes. By keeping with the standard keys of these hymns, they are useful when introducing hymns that are already well-known by the congregation, adding a new dimension to the church service. Handbell parts are included, very useful for a beginning choir, and also as a quick substitute when ringers are absent - no reason to announce the bells won't be playing if you have prepared a few of these as backup pieces. They may be played by a small number of ringers or even a solo ringer. A solo ringer may play these with an organist to create interest in a church interested in restarting a handbell program or start one with a new set of bells. The music is written out on two staves. Pedals are optional for the organist. Pedals may also be played using a Bass coupler. Composer Noel Jones is an Associate of the American Guild of Organists and worked as church musician in the United States and Europe. He was organist for the Church Center for the United Nations and accompanied the United Nations Singers in concert. Frog Music Press has published collections of playable hymns in three parts for organists as well as a Guide to Hymnplaying for Organists. The website address is www.frogmusic.com.
