Change Ringing Practice (Tower Bells)

November 14, 2009 11:00am-1:00pm Add to my calendar

This event occurs on Saturday through December 19, 2009.

Change ringing is a style of bell ringing developed for large church bells in Britain several hundred years ago. It does not involve ringing a melody on the bells, but rather permuting the order of sounding the bells according to formal rules called methods. You don't need any musical skill or experience to learn change ringing. If you enjoy working with numerical patterns, chances are this will be an enjoyable activity for you! We are always looking for new ringers and would be glad to teach you to ring.
