| Welcome to the online home of The Raleigh Ringers, an internationally acclaimed community handbell choir based in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Raleigh Ringers work toward the following goals:
- Bringing advanced sacred and secular handbell music to the widest possible audience.
- Promoting the art of handbell ringing through sponsoring and participating in workshops, tours and other educational and performing opportunities.
- Encouraging handbell composers and arrangers to create works for advanced handbell choirs through commissions and other means.
- Helping less experienced handbell musicians develop their ringing, directing and organizational skills.
If this is your first time visiting our site, please stay a while, learn what makes The Raleigh Ringers unique among advanced handbell ensembles, and listen to a tune or two—you’ll never think of “Stairway to Heaven” the same way again. You can even buy The Raleigh Ringers’ recordings and video for yourself or the music lover in your life. If you’re interested in staying in touch with the group, sign up for the semi-annual newsletter. And don’t forget to check out the concert schedule—the group frequently tours the country and would love for you to experience the transcendent sound of The Raleigh Ringers.
