Concert by The Walsh Memorial Bell Choir of USA in Dunblane Cathedral on Monday 28 June at 7.30pm
The Walsh Memorial Bell Choir was established in 1968 as a memorial to the Rev. Joseph E. Walsh, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Morris Plains, New Jersey, USA. As they have for 40 years, the bell choirs today bring their message to others through ringing praise with joy. The programme will include an exciting mix of classics, traditional melodies and contemporary music. A concert not to be missed!
Admission to the concert will be free, with donations invited.
The Walsh Memorial Bell Choir Programme includes several handbell choirs, with ringers generally grouped by age and experience. Handbell choirs rehearse each week and take part regularly in worship services. They also extend their musical mission to the local community, particularly during the Christmas season.
The Walsh Memorial Bell Choir, the concert touring choir with primarily high-school age ringers, is renowned for its excellence. Through the years, they have participated in many AGEHR Area and National Handbell Festivals and have made numerous concert tours throughout the United States and in Canada, England, Mexico, France and Germany.
