November 12, 2023

Capital Ringers, Delmarva’s community handbell ensemble, will present its concert Twelve Days of Christmas at venues in Dover, Milford, Seaford, Rehoboth Beach and Salisbury, Md. The concerts are a holiday tradition throughout the region.

“Our concert takes inspiration from the traditional English carol, focusing on the season of giving and blessing others,” said Kevin B. Chamberlain, Capital Ringers artistic director. “The performance will feature a festive arrangement of the ‘Twelve Days of Christmas,’ and both classical and popular Christmas selections arranged by many of today’s leading handbell composers.”

Ticket information varies by location. To view ticket prices and purchase information, go to capitalringers.org/12days.

The six performances will be: 4 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 25, at Bethel United Methodist Church, Lewes; 4 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 26, at Nobles Pond Clubhouse, Dover; 4 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2, Asbury United Methodist Church, Salisbury, Md.; 4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 3, Avenue United Methodist Church, Milford; 4 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 9, Conley’s United Methodist Church, Lewes; and 4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 10, Ross Mansion Events Center, Seaford.

The Capital Ringers own the largest collection of handbells and handchimes on the Delmarva Peninsula. While the ensemble is composed of advanced handbell ringers, the organization also features a beginner and intermediate group, Bay2Bay Ringers.
