Fifteen sets of hands….270 different instruments... a feast for the eyes and ears! Jubiloso! Bells of Concordia, an Edmonton community-based, auditioned ensemble, performs on the largest set of handbells and handchimes in Canada, including more than six octaves of handbells and handchimes. Jubiloso! will be joined by the Concordia String Quintet and a percussionist as soloist on a manual typewriter. The ensemble will also premiere an arrangement by Australian composer Tim Sherlock in a program of inspirational music.

Guest Conductor Debbie Rice, a native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is internationally recognized for her work in this unique field. She is currently Executive Director for the International Handbell Committee and served as National President of the American Guild of English Handbell Ringers, the largest handbell organization worldwide. She travels frequently as a clinician and festival conductor in the US and for international events.
