This week's Music & Worship Arts Week (MWAW) Spotlight Email highlights some favorite bell-isms; actual phrases uttered by members of handbell choirs from around the country. One of our favorites is:

"Anything in Italian means 'watch the director.'"

And with the dynamic pair of clinicians that will be with us at Music & Worship Arts Week, we know that if you choose to be a member of one of our Music & Worship Arts Week handbell choirs, you'll want to keep your eyes on the directors at all times! Beth Judd and Quint Harris both bring incredible experience, technical expertise, creativity, and love to the realm of ringing; and they will help you hone your skills and continue to grow in your ability to help make transformative worship come alive in your churches and communities! You do not want to miss the opportunity to work with and learn from these talented leaders.

To learn more about how to participate in the handbell choirs at MWAW, or to become more familiar with our clinicians, click here: https://bit.ly/mwaw-handbells
