Handbell: Musical Instrument
Today a Christmas concert was held at our university. In this concert, the musical instruments were only handbells. I didn't know that there was a handbell club at my university. Although I've known about "the handbell" as a musical instrument, I've never listened to the performance of handbells before. This was my first time to listen to the handbell performance.
The performance was so good! I was moved by the beautiful sound of handbells. The sound fits the Christmas songs and mood. Since I was so touched, I searched for handbells on the Internet. Then, I was so surprised to learn about many kinds of handbells and how to play them. I found a good video about the handbell's technique on YouTube.
This girl looks so young but it seems she has much knowledge about the handbell's performance. I learned a lot about the handbell's performance. I also found beautiful handbell performances on YouTube as follows.
We can also see the solo handbell performance as follows.
It's Awesome! The solo handbell performance is so hard, I think.
By the way, when I learn a new thing and I am interested in it, I search for it on the Internet soon. Moreover, I searched for not only them but also IT techniques about them. For example, I learned about handbell performance today, I searched for handbells using IT. Actually, I searched for some instances as texts like "handbell simulator VR". In other words, I searched for the handbell simulator software and VR handbell system. As a result, I found the following handbell simulator.
Wow! It's so nice! This handbell simulator is for free and it's based on Unity.
I can try handbell performance using this nice simulator. Now, most of the things in the real world can be simulated on a personal computer. I always say that if I have a computer and network, I don't need anything else.
