Play Handbells With Us
ring in the joy of the season!
There’s something special about making music with handbells—every ringer contributes a unique sound, and together those individual notes become something beautiful. Whether you’re an experienced musician or have never picked up a handbell before, Christus Bells offers a welcoming opportunity to learn, make music, and be part of a musical community.
The ensemble is directed by Erika Johnson, a versatile professional musician whose experience spans cabaret, musical theater, orchestral performance, and contemporary music. Erika was the drummer for the Pulitzer Prize-winning, pre-Broadway production of A Strange Loop at Woolly Mammoth Theatre and an on-stage band member in Signature Theatre’s acclaimed Girlfriend. She is also a percussionist with DC’s Great Noise Ensemble and has served as principal timpanist for the Tacoma Symphony Orchestra.
No previous handbell experience? No problem. New ringers are welcome, and Erika can help you learn the fundamentals and find your place in the ensemble.
Rehearsals: Wednesdays, 7–8:30 p.m.
Location: Sanctuary
Director: Erika Johnson
