Madison Area Concert Handbells
First Congregational United Church of Christ 1609 University Ave., Madison, Wisconsin 53726
press release: Ringing in the 20s!
Madison Area Concert Handbells is embarking on an exciting journey into a new era, our twenties. For that reason, our concerts on May 18 and 19 will have familiar tunes from the 1920s, such as Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, "Alexander’s Ragtime Band" and "Singin’ in the Rain." MACH’s director, an accomplished xylophone player with the Madison Symphony Orchestra (MSO), will be featured with the ensemble for a set of ragtime pieces by George Hamilton Green, a xylophone superstar of the 1920s. Plus, MACH will present the world premiere of UW-Madison student and former MACH ringer John Rottier’s original composition entitled "Portcullis."
