Peace and Carol Ringers Handbell Concert at the Kennedy Center Dec. 18: 'When December Falls'

The Peace and Carol Ringers handbell ensemble performs on the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage on December 18 at 6:00 p.m. in Studio K at The REACH in Washington, District of Columbia. Admission is free, with no tickets or registration required.

Celebrating its church's over five decades of handbells, the ensemble performs a variety of sacred and secular music in a concert titled When December Falls, according to the Kennedy Center. Handbell ringing assigns each player a few pitches from the scale, rung in sequence — a visually distinctive ensemble tradition rooted in church music.

The group brings together ringers across generations, performing in formation with cast-bronze handbells of graduated sizes, in one of the most seasonally apt programs on the Millennium Stage's December calendar.

Millennium Stage performances are also livestreamed. The Kennedy Center is located at 2700 F St NW, Washington, DC 20566.
