Review:
The twenty-three pieces in this collection take the beginning ringer from simplistic, straight-forward ringing on a journey to gradually introduce the basic techniques used in ringing handbells. Each exercise includes one new thing for the developing ringers to learn and master and can be rung with 7 ringers.
