Welcome

In 2002, The Atlanta Concert Ringers held its first rehearsal with much excitement over the prospect of a great musical adventure. Nine years later, we made a fresh beginning with our new leaders, Kevin McChesney (director) and Alice Myers (assistant director) and the outlook is even brighter today! This partnership has already proven to be wonderful for all of us.

Our 10th concert season begins in September and promises to entertain Atlanta and its surrounding areas with fun and joyful presentations. Keep checking this website - or you can check us out on Facebook - for updated information regarding future performances. We hope to see you soon!

The Atlanta Concert Ringers, Inc. (ACR) is an organization dedicated to the art of English Handbell Ringing. This diverse group is made up of experienced ringers from throughout the Atlanta Metropolitan area and includes four educators, one statistician, a human resources manager, a paralegal assistant, a stay-at-home mom, two information technologists,  a neuroscience PhD, and three experts in real estate (records, management and renovation). The group has been privileged to work with such notable handbell clinicians as Michael Helman, David Davidson and Kevin McChesney.

Founded in 2002, the ACR has performed as a featured group in arts festivals including Piccolo Spoleto and also festivals sponsored by the Handbell Musicians of America. Their repertoire includes high-level sacred and secular music, both whimsical favorites to notable classics, demonstrating the many techniques used in this unique art form.
