Composers, publishers, and others can use our services to get a
high-quality demo recording of their music. By using a soloist or small
group of ringers playing parts to a click track, we are able to quickly
and accurately recreate the sound of a full handbell choir. Because the
music is performed by real people playing real bells, the result is
significantly higher in quality than a computer-generated MIDI file. Our
clients include several major publishers of handbell music.
