I love the taste of sap. I love the cry of a newborn lamb. I love the lengthening shadows and the steady drip of icicles melting. Most of all I love the feeling of anticipation that comes from preparing for a spring concert. This year the sense of anticipation is ever present as the Hand Bell Choir of St. Paul\u2019s United Church in Perth prepare for \u201cRing in the Spring\u201d!<br class=\"html-br\">The concert will occur on April 12th, 2026 @ 2:00p.m. in the Sanctuary of St. Paul\u2019s, 25 Gore Street West, Perth ON.<\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s\">Some past descriptors of the overall sound of the bell choir include, \u201cmagical\u201d \u201cephemeral,\u201d and \u201cmesmerizing\u201d The concert will feature beautiful and exciting bell music enhanced by many aspects and techniques of bell ringing, including echoing, marting, table damping, thumb damping, and one piece of music entirely malleted. You could find out for yourself what these are all about by attending the concert.<\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s\">Other performers celebrating spring include Brad Mills on piano and Don MacLean on Cello, as well as a barbershop octet called \u201cHigh Octane\u201d.<\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s\">Admission is simply a freewill offering.
