How often do we as a community try to reach out to non-traditional places to promote handbells
and handchimes? We know that our instruments bring joy not only to us, the ringers, but also to
those who experience our performances.

SON: Dad, when I grow up I want to be a musician.
DAD: You have to make a choice, you can't be both.
I have heard this joke before, and it still makes me chuckle, almost as much as drummers thinking
they are musicians. Of course, I'm kidding, but the joke still makes me think of handbells and handchimes. When you play them, you do feel almost like a kid, with the joy and fun that can be had.
And yet, we sometimes keep this a secret.
How many times have you been to see a comedian or magician perform, and they involve
a volunteer from the audience? They talk with them, get them comfortable, and bring them up on
stage. This gets the audience more involved, because now it is “one of us” up there. Why can't we
do that with handbells or handchimes? Why should they just be relegated to "we play, they listen?"
Do you, as a part of a performance, ever bring a members of the audience up and involve them?
Maybe they could be given pieces of music with marked notes so that they could follow along (or
maybe the director could cue them). This could lead to some fun moments for these new ringers,
the choir, and the audience. Make a skit out of it, and have a choir member or two join in to “help!”
Go to a nursing home and involve the audience in playing an old standard that they know from their
past. How about visiting a day care and bringing Kidsplay™ handbells for the kids to ring? There
is music available from the Ring Along series of books that use words instead of notes. Chimers
Charts™, Kidsplay™ music and others also use color notes to help non-music readers. The joy
of ringing can be shared a lot more easily than many of us think!
And by the way, of course drummers are musicians... at least in their own minds.

Simichrome Polish
Cape Cod Polish
Cleaning Cloths
Restore the shine to your bells with Simichrome
Polish, recommended by handbell manufacturers!
This ammonia-based polish oxidizes tarnish
and returns the original luster to bells with just
a soft, clean cloth and a little elbow grease.
These cloths clean and leave an invisible layer
of anti-tarnish protection, yet are not ammoniabased. Reclosable foil pouch contains two 4” x 6”
cloths. Tin has twelve 4” x 6” cloths and includes
one pair of nitrile gloves.
Use to apply polish, remove the polish, and to pick
up any remaining residue. The lint-free interlocking
knit does not ravel. May be washed and reused.

Before
Are your bells more than five years old and have never
been serviced?
Do their clappers seem to stick or not move freely?
Do they produce sounds that could be described
as squeaks, clicks, thuds or clangs?
Are handles/handguards worn or difficult to read?
Are their castings tarnished?

feature molded-in bumpers, a three-stage telescopic recessed

1st Octave Case
• The manufacturer offers a 3 year warranty.
• The foam packs (on the inside) have a 1 year warranty. Foam can be replaced if needed; please call us for details. With normal wear, the foam packs should last approximately 10 years.
• The case is water resistant (not waterproof). The tongue-in-groove seal on the cases will prevent moisture from entering for a short time (ex: moving from the car to the building), but cannot be depended upon
to protect bells if left outside for extended periods of time.

Mallets
Belltree Mallets
TruTimbre makes every mallet with one goal– to give you the best possible sound from your handbells!
With precise ranges, rich tones, soft 100% wool yarns and balanced voicing, the results are spectacular.
The upper range mallets focus the mallet strike and enable the upper bells to speak clearly and distinctly
without being shrill.
Our brown rubber, white poly, black rubber and
white nylon mallets with shortened handles are
perfect for processionals and bell trees. You’ll love
the accuracy they allow! Distinctive black handles
help separate them from your other mallets.

Comfort Grip Mallet Handles
Compartment Mallet Bag
Tall Mallet Bag
Our Comfort Grip mallet handle makes malleting
easier! Designed for bass bell mallets, the handle
provides extra weight to balance the large mallet
head, resulting in a more sure strike to the
handbell. The TruTimbre Comfort Grip handle
can also be used on all other TruTimbre mallets
for a more sure grip. The increased size makes
picking up, holding and releasing the mallet easier.
Comfort Grip handles come standard on the Plum
and Burgundy mallets.
Featuring sewn-in compartments to keep your
mallets sorted and easily accessible, this bag can
be hung on the wall or folded and zipped shut
for travel. Measures 19¼" tall and 14½" wide.
Also has a useful shoulder strap and two front
zippered pockets.
Allowing ample room for mallet heads with its
unique tapered design, this 21" tall bag (11" wide
®
at the top) is constructed of durable Cordura
fabric with a top zippered closure. An additional
storage pocket on the front and handy shoulder
strap add to its functionality.

table and foam coverings
Custom Covers Three-Piece Table Covers
Custom Covers Two-Piece Table Covers
Custom Covers One-Piece Table Covers
For the choir looking for versatility and originality,
you can design your own table coverings with our
Valance Three-Piece Designer Series of handbell
and handchime table coverings.
• Express the character of your group
• Match the sanctuary of your church or wherever
you perform
• Highlight seasonal performance themes
• Change the look of your group for any special
performance theme
All of this can be accomplished by changing
valances, rather than using separate covers
for each occasion. The possibilities are almost
endless with only one set of base coverings for
your choir!
Standard Valances come with a simple trim or single swag, Pleated Valances maintain the simplicity
of the Standard look with a pleated finish, and
Deluxe Valances come with more intricate patterns
and designs, such as our double swag, horizontal
blocks, vertical bands or stained glass. Skirts
are available in Standard (straight) and Pleated.
A. Standard Two-Piece. The Standard Two-Piece
Table Covering features a top piece (covering the
top and back side of the table) and a skirt (covering the remaining three sides). Our stylish twopiece design also solves the dilemma of covering
trapezoidal tables. The top piece covers the top
of the table, and the skirt wraps around the entire
table with a slight overlap in the back. The bottom of the cover can be hemmed or finished with
fringe, braid or tassels in a variety of colors. Easy
to use, easy to store!
B. Deluxe Two-Piece. Two piece design, pleated
front and skirt, with attractive box pleats offer an
easy way to dress up your choir.
C. Pad Covers with or without Skirts. Fitted
corners with a velcro® closure on the bottom
ensure easy use. You can also add a removable
skirt, which attaches to the pad cover with velcro®.
With this addition, you have a functional pad cover
for rehearsals that tranforms into a beautiful cover
perfect for more formal occasions!
Budget-Saver One-Piece Table Covering.
This one-piece design features rounded corners
which drapes approximately 15” on all sides with
braid around the edges. Cover tables individually
or cover multiple tables at once!
Full Drape One-Piece Covers. This one-piece
design features rounded corners and drapes
elegantly to the floor. The bottom of the cover
can be hemmed or finished with fringe, braid
or tassels in a variety of colors.
Custom Covers Embroidered Banners
Custom Covers Embroidery & Lettering
We use our quality pinwale corduroy and velvet to
construct banners to showcase the name of your
group, church, etc. Embroidered lettering on the
fabric (one to four inches in height) is available
in several font choices in a full array of colors. All
banner pricing includes 3 lines of lettering, with
a normal width of 18” or less. Gold braid or the
trim style and color of your choice is sewn on the
outside border of your banner.
Choose from one of our in-stock patterns or have
your own design digitized to make your ensemble
complete. Send us your art or let us know which
of ours you would like, and our experienced staff
will turn your idea into beautiful embroidery that
will adorn your covers forever.

Acrylic Bell Tree Separators
Wire Bell Tree Clips
Bell Tree Guards
Acrylic Bell Tree Separators
(set of 3- 2 long, 1 short) are
recommended for bell tree
use of bells B5 and below
(not recommended for bells
below G4). The unique design
eliminates swaying and keeps
the bell casting from touching
the handle of the bell beside it.
Wire Bell Tree Separator Clips
are recommended for bell tree
use of bells C6 and above.
These useful clips perform
the same duties as the Acrylic
Bell Tree Separators, but for
smaller bells.
Interlocking the handles of bells
for popular bell tree processionals
can be a problem. Our bell tree
guards prevent the handles
of bells from slipping over the
handle of the interlocked bell
and over the casting, letting your
ringers proceed with confidence.

Basic Training for Bells MacGorman, Venita
This collection introduces the essential
skills needed for ringing handbells and
handchimes by presenting rote exercises for the ringers to drill each new
skill. Music throughout the book, arranged in both 2 and 3-octave versions,
includes hymn arrangements, classical transcriptions,
and original pieces. The music provides all ringers
the opportunity to put newly learned techniques,
such as shaking, echoes, martellatos, changing bells
and playing at dfferent dynamic levels, into practice.
Instructions are given for modifying the techniques for
use with handchime choirs. A bibliography of music
utilizing the various techniques is included.

Basic Training 2: Rhythm Training for
Ringers
MacGorman, Venita
Continues the concept of "Basic Training for Bells" : that EVERY new skill is
introduced to all of the ringers, so that
the entire bell choir learns and performs
each new element presented. In each
lesson, a new rhythmic pattern or time
signature is practiced first in unpitched notation, then
in unison exercises, and finally in a short musical
example in which all ringers play the newly-learned
element. The collection features both 2-3 octave and
3-5 octave musical examples, including arrangements
of folk songs, spirituals, hymntunes and classical
literature.

Rosene, Dr. Paul
The use of handchimes, both as a regular choir and as an interesting addition
to the handbell sound, is widespread.
This resource book explains how handchimes can perform the special effects

Willetts, Sandra
Conducting is a multifaceted craft that
includes ear training, vocal training,
conducting techniques, rehearsal
techniques, performance practice,
music theory, and music history - not
to mention basic leadership and group
dynamics. It can also be an art that will
consume a lifetime of study and practice. Approach
the conducting technique as any other musical skill
that requires drill and practice, and you’re on your
way to becoming an effective conductor!

Gloves
by Nancy Kirkner, solobells.com
Handbell musicians wear gloves to protect
bronze bell castings from spots caused by
direct contact with bare skin. If not removed,
these spots will mark the metal permanently.
What type of glove to wear (or whether
to wear gloves at all) is a highly personal
preference and may change over time. As a
choir ringer, I started with cheap, shared cotton gloves, progressed to gloves with plastic
dots, and added Velcro® wrist straps when I
began quartet ringing. When I started solo
ringing, my gloves changed again. Here are
some thoughts to consider as you choose:
To dot, or not: Gloves with dots and wrist
straps are a good choice for most ringers.
Dots help to provide a secure grip on bell
handles, while wrist straps help to keep
gloves in place during bell changes. For
small ensemble ringers, wrist straps also
prevent your partner from grabbing your
glove along with the bell during hand-offs.
If you find wrist straps confining, you can
replace them with a longer piece of Velcro®,
available from most fabric stores.
More advanced ringers and soloists may
prefer gloves with Velcro® straps but without
dots, which allow quicker release for bell
changes in fast passages. Finger damping
is easier without dots, which can stick to the
casting. Look for gloves with extra padding
in the space between your index and middle
fingers for four-in-hand. I wear this type of
glove now for advanced solo work.
I prefer gloves with dots for interlocked
six-in-hand, especially while learning
a piece. Dots keep the bells from shifting
and causing blisters. Obviously, this works
only for a piece with minimal finger damping.
While learning six-in-hand technique, moleskin or medical tape strategically placed on
your fingers can minimize blistering. I also
suggest dots for plucking bells, especially in
the high treble with your fingertips, as they
grip the clapperhead better.
Specialized gloves: Bass ringers (and
others) often need extra protection for their
hands. Leather gloves, polyurethane/nylon
gloves, and heavy knit gloves can be good
choices for bass ringers or any ringers who
need more protection. Another option is to
try double gloves (wearing two pairs, one
on top of the other).
The “naked” option: Some musicians ring
without gloves, pointing out that no other
musicians wear them. There are pros and
cons to this. I do ring without gloves when
I mallet bell trees, to improve accuracy.
www.HandbellWorld.com
It’s also easier to turn pages with bare
hands, though you can dog-ear the page
(alternating top and bottom) to make it
easier to turn while wearing gloves (using
"music marking" tools like mini-pins is another option). For solo ringing from memory,
I find bells release faster with cotton gloves
than bare hands, which can stick to plastic
handles. If you finger damp or hand damp
a lot as I do, bells stay cleaner if you don’t
touch the metal with bare hands. Bass ringers and four-in-hand ringers may insist on
gloves to prevent blisters. Uniformity among
the bell choir isn’t necessary; an audience
is unlikely to notice (or care) who’s wearing
gloves and who isn’t.
Caring for gloves: For health reasons,
ringers should have their own gloves.
To keep them separate, label the slots
of a cardboard wine carton with names,
then store the box with other equipment.
You can also use a compartmental shoe
bag, if you have somewhere to hang it.
Ringers who take their gloves home can
buy a pouch that fits in their music binder,
though gloves should be allowed to dry
before being stored. Ringers should also
be encouraged to wash their gloves at least
once a month. If someone takes all the
gloves home to wash together, mark ringers’
initials inside the wristband with an indelible
marker or fabric pen.
Size: Jeffers has a sizing chart online and
on the "gloves page" of Vibrations to help
you choose your size (page 8, Winter
2014 edition). Handbell gloves come
in a wide range of adult sizes, as well as
children’s sizes S and L. Choose a snug fit
for dexterity. Cotton gloves may shrink,
unless washed in cold
water and hung to dry.
Because I practice every day, I wash my
gloves every week in a mesh lingerie bag
with other laundry, then hang them to dry.
To wash white gloves, put them on and
wash your hands, gloves and all, with bar
soap. If dotted gloves stick, wash them
several times to “break in” the dots. When
gloves develop a hole
at the fingertip, mend
them by using the handle of a wooden spoon
as a darning egg.
Color: I always wear
black gloves for performance. Black goes with
everything and highlights
the bronze castings, while
white gloves can draw
attention to your hands.
(I wear white gloves when
teaching or conducting
for this reason.) Colors
are tougher– it’s hard
to match colors exactly,
and wearing an outfit and
gloves in two different
shades will look odd. If
you want to dye or tie-dye
your gloves, instructions can be found in the
Vibrations article archives
online. I’ve also seen
gloves with decoration on
the back, though I prefer to draw attention
to the instrument, not my wardrobe.
A “costume” can enhance the performance
for some ringers, though.
Who pays? In my opinion, a church that
pays for choir folders for its chancel choir
should likewise pay for binders and gloves
for the handbell choir. Even in a community
ensemble, it makes sense to budget for
gloves, buying in bulk and ensuring you
always have spares, instead of taking glove
orders and collecting money from ringers.
Discounts are often given for buying multiple
pairs at once, in the same style but your
choice of sizes.

Final glove thoughts:
I keep performance
gloves in a gear box
that goes to every
performance. I take
at least two pairs of
gloves that have been
washed and paired
(in case a glove
develops a hole
during performance).
I set aside all my
new gloves for performance. Over time,
they get demoted from
Black gloves
performance gloves
"disappear"
to practice gloves
to mended practice
gloves, until finally I can’t stand them
and throw them away.
When you sub for another choir, or attend
a handbell class, bring your own gloves.
Coming prepared is a sign of professionalism. If subbing for performance, ask what
color gloves to wear. Even if you ring your
own bells without gloves, ask permission
before handling other people’s bells with
bare hands. National handbell events nearly
always require ringers to wear gloves.

The Lamb of Calvary
William Gross
The composer of this original work asks for emotional response
from ringers throughout. It is devotional in nature, starting quietly, building to a dramatic climax, and ending as it began. The
modal tonalities offer tonal surprises all through the piece, with
frequent accidentals in the final pages. Rhythms include duplet
and triplet eights and jazz-like combinations. The key is F to start
and ends in G. A remarkable work to perform and hear.

Fall Fresh On Me
arr. Brian Childers
The prayerful character of this hymn arrangement will move
ringers and listeners. The tune is supported by chordal quarter
notes or murmuring eighth patterns throughout. Pairing bells
and chimes together is a lovely touch. The piece is technically
easy but needs careful attention to dynamics and tonal balance.

Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing
arr. Gary Adkison
This piece provides an effectively resonant sound for a level 2
arrangement. It offers two ‘verses’ contrasting in character and tonality. The first in Eb major is chordal, but varies from the original
hymn in its 3/4 meter and unexpected chord spellings. The second
verse is in G major and is more animated and robust, with some
moving bass lines and a descant in treble bells. Rhythms are easy
and accidentals are few in this appealing old favorite.

Tears of the Lilies
William Gross
This picture in sound, called a “reflection of Calvary”, is sure to
produce an emotional response from ringers and listeners. It
opens with a “f “ wail that diminishes into the quiet theme over
ostinato patterns of eighth notes. Midway, the musical character changes beneath the melody, where detached note patterns
add drama. The final section moves from g minor to a minor in a
climactic fashion, the ostinato returns, and the music dies away
to a “pp” ending. The pairing of bells and chimes add lovely tonal
color to this exceptional original work.

Elegy for Bells
Brian Childers
This original work is a reflective expression of emotion. It is
written in c minor and begins in simple fashion but gains in
texture and dynamics to a climactic point and dies away to
a whispered ending. The use of bells and chimes combined
is tonally beautiful. Many ringing techniques add up to a piece
that is also fascinating to perform.

Collections Vol. 12: Four Introits for Holy Week
and Easter
arr. William Gross
Four unique introits scored for bells and voices are offered in this
collection. “What Wondrous Love” is a chordal accompaniment to a
simple vocal line. “Up From the Grave He Arose” is similar in scoring but majestic rather than contemplative. “He’s Alive” is marked
‘Grandiose’ and adds trumpet, hand drum, and finger cymbals for
exciting tonal color. “He Never Said a Mumbaling Word” is a brief,
quietly devotional statement upholding its beautiful text.

Collections Vol. 13: In Celebration of Life
arr. David Kellermeyer
This collection of service music contains four pieces that may
be used in a variety of ways. “Thine Is the Glory” is offered as
a prelude and is a majestic single verse setting for bells and
chimes. “Psalm 23” is a meditation based on two hymn tunes,
again scored for bells and chimes. “Requiem” is brief but uses
unique bell effects for special worship events. “Giver of Life” is a
postlude, grandiose and brilliant with resonant chords throughout. This is a fine collection for use through the church year.

arr. Gary Adkinson
This collection of hymn tunes contains two medleys and a single

Story” combines “Alas and Did My Savior Bleed”, “Christ the
Lord Is Risen Today”, and “Crown Him”, all suitable for Easter
use. “Low in the Grave” is a musical drama with a dirge in minor
key using chimes, the resurrection foretold, and the resurrection
finale, all utilizing the basic hymn tune. The final medley sets
“Fairest Lord Jesus”, “Jesus Is All the World”, and the three settings of “All Hail the Power”. All of these settings are at level two,
but are creative, resonant offerings to worship.

Sizing Guide
To better help you make the proper choices
when ordering apparel and wearable items,
we are proud to offer a sizing guide for your
use. All measurements given in inches.
(Take notice when ordering for youth ringers
that the sizes for many of the adult and youth
shirts are similar, with adult sizes adding
a bit of body and sleeve length. For example,
an Adult Medium is the same as a Youth
XL with added body length. This means
many of our Adult shirts are also suitable
for Youth ringers.)

Music Policy
Returns
The Jeffers Retail Music Department has one of the
world’s largest inventories of handbell music, containing
the work of more than 100 publishers. Some of these
companies print just a few titles; others print several
releases each year. We stock all of this music to provide you with the fastest service possible; our goal is
to get your order on its way in 24-48 hours. When we
receive your call early in the day, your order is often on
a truck that same evening.
Music on Approval
Many directors need help selecting music for their
choirs. We are delighted to help with our Music on
Approval program. Order the titles you would like to
see. Review them and decide to keep, order more or
return them. We ask that you include a copy of the
invoice with all returns and pay for shipping both ways.
Music Discounts
We base our music discount schedule on dollar amounts
rather than number of copies ordered. Unlike choral
music, handbell music is ordered in small quantities. We
have two different discount schedules available. The first
is based on the size of the order at full retail price.
ORDER DISCOUNT:
$50.00 to $99.99.........................5%
$100.00 to $199.99...................10%
$200.00 +..................................15%
The second is based on past purchases. The retail
value of your music purchases in either the current or
previous year, whichever is higher, will determine your
discount level.
ACCOUNT DISCOUNT:
$100.00 to $199.99.....................5%
$200.00 to $399.99...................10%
$400.00 +..................................15%
The discount received will be determined by only
one of the discounts. The above discounts apply to
selected music only. There are no discounts on CDs,
cassettes or videos. Equipment, supplies, software,
bells and chimes also do not apply. Demand Print music
is also non-discountable. However, the retail value of
purchased Demand Print music does count toward the
order and account discount levels.
All returned merchandise must be returned in new,
salable condition with original packaging, and should
include a copy of the invoice. Returns postmarked
greater than 30 days after invoice date may be subject
to a 20% restocking fee.
Additional guidelines:
• Custom items are not returnable
• CDs, DVDs, audiotapes, videotapes,
and computer software must be unopened.
• Music must be returned unused and unmarked.
