UP and RINGING!

A sequential set of lessons for new ringers of all ages

All new ringers need material to help them develop good ringing skills.
Easy music allows them to concentrate on ringing technique and tracking their notes.

New ringers who already know how to read music face challenges unique to handbell music.

Sometimes excellent keyboardists are confused by the difficulty of ringing only two
staff notes instead of being responsible for all the notes on the staff.
Other instrumentalists who are accustomed to reading a monophonic line
also find it difficult to play only two notes instead of all the notes.

Easy music helps these ringers adjust to reading handbell music.

Use Up and Ringing! to lay a good foundation for any new ringer.

If it is necessary to work beginners into an existing group, challenge the returning
ringers to ring a “new position” while working through this training material.
