Ring My Chimes

As a former Glockenspiel player and viberaphone musician I fancy all things bell-like; door bells, school bells, church bells, and an occasional Parisian bell-hop (just spoofing). This past week we were treated to a glorious concert performed by the Evangelical Free Church Bell Choir in Bemidji, Minnesota. The choir was composed of twelve members, their director, and the church organist. From the high trill of the tiniest bell to the low resonanace of the base, one's heart and spirit was transported from the cares of this world to the aires of the next.
