Hand Bells

Instrumentalists
- Parts are available for a wide variety of wind and string instruments.
- Instrumentalists should be able to read music to a basic degree (recognize note names on sight, read basic rhythms, etc). Listening tracks will be available to aid in home practice. Rusty skills are fine!
- Instrumental rehearsals will be held once per week, for about an hour.
