Hershey Handbell Ensemble Christmas Concert

Formed in 2004, the fifteen member ensemble is based in south-central Pennsylvania and performs under the direction of Dr. Shawn Gingerich. It was established to fulfill the need for an auditioned community ensemble comprised of persons able to play advanced literature and interested in advancing the art of handbell ringing through education and performance, while uniting people through the musical arts. Ringers representing seven south-central PA counties, perform on seven and a half octaves of Malmark Handbells, four octaves of Petit and Fritsen Handbells, Silver Melody Bells, and Handchimes, and other assorted instruments. In 2015, the ensemble performed at the White House.
