Virginia Bronze is an ensemble of musicians based in Northern Virginia who are committed to the advancement of handbell musicianship and repertoire at the highest levels through the presentation of challenging, diverse, new and innovative music that showcases the breadth of handbells, new music that incorporates the instrument, and works of new arrangers and composers of that music. The organization recruits musicians seeking to serve as ambassadors of the art of handbells through professional level performances, workshops, festivals and other ringing events. All ringers are expected to grow and maintain their skills as handbell musicians. Performing the level of music selected for VAB requires skill and preparation outside of rehearsal. Additional opportunities for ringers looking for a more challenging and intense performance may be offered through small ensemble pieces performed as part of standard concert programming. VAB rehearses for 2 1/2 hours every Tuesday night at Bush Hill Presbyterian Church in Alexandria, VA.
