    Are you a handbell addict? Do you like to be challenged? If
    you answered YES to either of these questions, then Bronze Vision is for YOU! This option features four hours
    of intense ringing – something all you handbell addicts will love! Beth will work to bring out all the music
    that's in these "meaty" pieces and in YOU, all the while keeping it lively and fun for everyone. The Bronze
    Vision group will present two pieces at the Saturday afternoon concert. Expect to work hard, but expect to
    go home with a BIG SMILE on your face!

    • The Banana Boat Song* arr. by Sondra K. Tucker (Level 3) — From the Top, 3-6
    octaves handbells, 3-4 octaves handchimes, with optional percussion (bongos, maracas, claves, rainstick, windchimes, and bamboo chimes)
