A SENSORY-FRIENDLY + FAMILY-FRIENDLY Handbell Show:

Technical accommodations are made for the comfort of all the audiences. This show is suitable for the general audience, while sharing the same space with persons with disabilities / special needs & their families.

Bringing together locally premiered works with very well-known international music titles & an established & exciting (& unique) Traditional English Handbell Ringing art-form combined with educational bantering (linking the different styles/music/titles) with acting, multimedia & sensorial-experiences (visual-sounds-touch-hear-sight-movement), our handbell concerts will be a totally new experience for many of our audiences.

The MOB-16 is fronted by Traditional English Handbells, combined with 2 co-story tellers (R.Chandran, & conductor), in addition to local professional artists and foreign guest ringers.

MOB-16 will be led by Principal Conductor, Damien Lim, and sharing the stage with him are MOB’s Conductor Stephy Neo & returning since 2019: one of America’s most prominent handbell figures, Michael Glasgow.

For both shows, there will also be the return of our pre-show sensorial exitbition and hands-on experience (if measures permit), where audiences will be treated to:

1. an exhibition of what is a sensory-friendly concert poster presentation
2. hands-on bell ringing activities and petting-zoo
3. community drum circle
