The Bells of Holy Trinity is a five-octave handbell choir comprised of members of Holy Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in Abington, PA. The bell choir rings in worship at Holy Trinity twice a month in addition to performing at special services and concerts at the church. They have also performed concerts at Ann’s Choice in Warminster, at churches in Norristown and Hatboro, and as part of the annual Harp Festival at West Chester University. Next spring they will perform at Spring House Estates. The choir has a wonderful family feel with young teenage members and adults up to many decades older. Several of the ringers also are very fine instrumentalists, and their offerings give variety and beauty to the bell choir concerts. Jacqueline Smith, Director of Music at Holy Trinity, conducts the Bells of Holy Trinity.
