Rehearsal was amazing and tough! I got so much feedback on things I could do musically and getting my ringing to come out just right. It will by no means be easy, but I'm really excited about all the new things I will learn this semester.
About Me
- Michele Meenk
- I'm a musical gal from a musical family. I've been playing piano for 20 years and ringing bells for 18. I taught myself saxophone in Jr High, and have toyed around on other reed instruments. I'm in the process of teaching myself guitar. I was not a music major in college because I thought I would grow to hate music if I made it my profession, so I studied psychology instead. I'm now in the process of applying to a Master's degree program in music therapy (silly of me to not take music before, huh?). Music is in my heart and soul, and handbells definitely dominate my passion for music. I find something magical in holding a bell in my hand, and I'm in awe when a group of 13 people stands at a table and brings a set of bronze bells to life. I learned to play bells in elementary school, and I definitely believe that bells are great for young and budding musicians. It is my dream to start a music therapy program and community education program to bring bells and music to kids who might not have opportunities to experience how much fun music truly is.
