Houston Bronze Ensemble
About the Houston bronze ensemble
Houston Bronze Ensemble is an auditioned community handbell ensemble of advanced ringers from the Houston area. Founded in 1988, the group performs on 7 octaves of Schulmerich Handbells and 6 octaves of Malmark Chimes. We also have a variety of other bells and auxiliary instruments including 5 octaves of Petit and Fritsen bells, silver melody bells, orchestral chimes and more. We perform concerts, generally in December and May. Our HBE Celebration Ringers is a subset of the full ensemble and performs at parties and community events throughout the year.
HBE is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization and we rely on the generousity of our patrons to further of mission of promoting the art of handbell ringing. Your donation is greatly appreciated. To make a contribution, please click on one of the donate buttons scattered throughout the website.
