About Rezound!

Our Mission

Rezound! is dedicated to promoting the art and skill of handbell ringing in performance, serving the community through varied educational endeavors, and providing the highest quality and challenging outlet for skilled ringers.

Established in June 2001, the ensemble presents a lively sound blending the unique timbres of Schulmerich handbells, Petit & Fritsen bells, Malmark handchimes, Whitechapel bells and Maas-Rowe bells.

Rezound! has been creating and performing exceptional music since 2001. While our passion for handbell music is what connects us, our membership includes individuals with diverse interests and occupations: scientists, teachers, accountants, stained glass artist, landscape architect/urban designer, composer, sign language interpreter, audiovisual archivist, wine consultant, individuals working at banks and universities as well as church musicians. We call the greater Kansas City area home, with members from Missouri and Kansas.

Our Musicians

Rezound! creates its signature sound by integrating the distinct timbres of a variety of handbell instrumentation. Our musical arsenal includes Schulmerich handbells, Malmark choir chimes, Whitechapel bells, Petit & Fritsen bells, and Maas-Rowe.
