"Let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation." (Ps 95)

Core of the Music Ministry

Our Handbell Choir rings joyful music at Mass with the regular “Weekly Musicians” about once a month throughout the school year. They also play for both the Christmas Day and Easter Day 11:00 a.m. Masses as well as for Holy Thursday and Easter Vigil each year. When schedules permit, they also ring out joyful noise for the community through nursing home visits and concerts.

Responsibilities

The Handbells are a unique set of instruments in which each player is responsible for 2 to 4 notes on the grand staff. Because of this, attendance at weekly Tuesday night rehearsals is a must. It is, of course, understood that life events come up and it is impossible to be 100%. However, all players are asked to make this ensemble a priority both with the rehearsal schedule as well as the Mass schedule. That being said, you would never guess that there is more laughter and joke making in this group than any other music ensemble at St Leos :-D
