Ringing in the spirit of Giving
Earlier this fall, Houston Bronze Ensemble was delighted to donate a performance by the HBE Celebration Ringers—a subgroup of HBE ringers—to a silent auction hosted by our wonderful friends at Trinity Downtown Lutheran Church. Proceeds from the auction are helping with the cost of much-needed air-conditioning repairs.Trinity Downtown Lutheran Church has for many years been an incredibly generous host to HBE, providing us with both rehearsal space and storage space for our very large collection of instruments. We are so grateful for their hospitality and the support they continue to give our ensemble.We’re always looking for ways to give back, so we were thrilled when our donated performance was bid upon! In December, the Celebration Ringers will be ringing at a wedding as we fulfill our auction donation. We will also have the opportunity to give back by ringing in their Epiphany service in January. We’re so happy to have these opportunities to share our music, support our host church, and give back to a community that has given so much to us.
Music is meant to be shared—and we’re grateful for every opportunity to share ours!
