MIDDLE TENNESSEE HANDBELL FESTIVAL 2025
Our fourth Middle Tennessee Handbell Festival will be held on Saturday, March 1, 2025, at Tulip Grove Baptist Church in Old Hickory, TN, from 9am – 2:45pm. This year, we are excited to welcome our clinician/conductor Jason Krug! You may read his bio here.
The festival this year will introduce two new ideas. One is to have an OPTIONAL challenge piece included in the repertoire. Each group may choose whether or not to participate in this piece. There will be only one 30-minute rehearsal on it, so if your group chooses to participate, please know that the piece needs to be fairly well-prepared before the festival! To see the repertoire list, please click here. Secondly, we are offering an expanded lunch selection this year, which includes a gluten-free salad option. You may see the menu on the registration page .
A continental breakfast of donuts and fruit, a mid-morning snack, and bottled water will be provided by the host. Please consider bringing a shareable snack. We will put them on the table for everyone to enjoy!
Registration will begin on October 1, 2024. Please register as early as possible. Your place at the festival will be officially secured once the registration and payment are received.
We welcome individual ringers also! See the Registration page for more information. Bells, mallets, chimes, and folders will be provided. You will need to purchase your music.
