Interested in ringing handbells with Embellish or Campana? Great!
If you’re an experienced handbell ringer looking for a new challenge, a great group of people to ring with, and some really excellent snacks, you’re in the right place!
Embellish’s season runs from late August through early June of each year, with practices on Tuesday evenings from 7pm-9:30pm at Aquinas College. Our repertoire varies from year to year, but generally includes a mix of level 3, 4, 5, & 6 handbell music.
Campana is our companion ensemble, and rings a similar level of music, but with a smaller time commitment. Campana runs for two semester segments each year: September-November, and January-March. They practice on Tuesday evenings prior to Embellish.
If you’re thinking about taking the plunge, please fill out the below form, and plan on attending our open house on May 5th to have all of your questions answered, and to get some one-on-one time with the group!
