Repost from Handbell-L

I am happy to announce the Second Annual Fredericksburg (VA) Area
Handbell Festival and Concert to be held on Saturday April 2, 2011 at
the Fredericksburg United Methodist Church. Nancy Cappel will be the
Guest Director. 12 Handbell Choirs from the Stafford, Spotsylvania, and
Fredericksburg area are participating in this event.
 
Our first get-together last year was a small 6 choir "Ringers Ringing
for Ringers" half day event with each choir ringing 2 or 3 pieces
separately and joining for a massed ring of 1 number at the end. This
year's festival event format will include a few "individual choir"
pieces during the breaks throughout the day and a concert at 2:30 PM to
close the event.
 
Our concert repertoire includes:
 
Alleluia Amen – Linda Lamb
Blessed Assurance – Sandra Eithun
I'm Just A Poor Wayfarin' Stranger – Tammy Waldrop
Prayer for Peace (with PowerPoint) – Michael Helman
Exuberant Joy – Arnold Sherman
 
If you are near the Washington, DC area and looking for something to do
on Saturday afternoon take a drive up or down I-95 to listen to some
great music. We all know what Nancy does with her own choirs.
 
Contact me if you would like any other information.
