Ring Sarasota Announces 12th Season

July 28, 2021 – Sarasota

Wrapping up a successful 11th season Highways & Byways, Ring Sarasota announces the theme for their 12th season, Stage and Screen.  

After a year of social distancing, masks and mandates, Ring Sarasota is ready to cut loose! Having missed attending concerts, plays, and movies, the ringers are ready to entertain audiences with some of their favorite music from the stage & screen. From TV favorites to classic westerns, and songs where audiences can hum along, the diverse repertoire includes such titles as “Let the Sun Shine In,” “Over the Rainbow,” and “The Addams Family.” In addition, the ringers have selected a few original pieces to show off the amazing music composed specifically for handbells.  

“For our 12th season, the ringers really want to put on a show, so we went straight for what entertains us – movies, musicals, and television,” says Rick Holdsworth, Principal Conductor. 
Not your traditional handbell choir, Ring Sarasota’s 17 musicians utilize 111 handbells and 73 chimes during their performances.
