Something NEW!!!!

Up to 28 ringers will be selected to perform during the worship services at Westwood Lutheran Church. Two of the Anthornis pieces will be performed: “A Mighty Fortress is Our God” and “Prelude on Herzliebster Jesu”.
Service time: 9:00 AM.
Sunday attire is all black, with (preferred) the official Anthornis shirt or other black shirt.

The Anthornis event is for those who want to ring more challenging music.
The event is named “Anthornis” after New Zealand bellbirds. The bellbirds sing loud, rich rambling songs, often in duet or with neighboring birds in concert. They have three distinct songs; one most often sung at dawn, is a series of pure, bell-like tones from which the bird gets its name. Note that a bell shape is formed when the two birds are combined in the logo above.
