If I could play the piano by coloring notes and keys and treating it like guitar hero. Is that being able to play the piano?
I use to play handbells and I'd color my notes for my different bells. It was basically exactly like guitar hero. I wouldn't really say I could play handbells, I can manage 4 or 5 large bells that ring a couple times here and there. Like a solo part with a ton of little bells and stuff, nope.
like these ones or just in the sheet music?
Like those.
Sheet music in front of me with my notes circled in respective colors. For example, my F# bell would be blue. So when a blue note would be coming up I knew I needed to get my F# bell ready and ring it when the time comes.
If you removed the colors I couldn't begin to play. Well, I could figure it out because I know some basic music theory now. But I'd definitely want to color them after I figured out which bell was which.
The way I played handbells was equivalent to like a dozen people sitting at a piano and each getting only a handful of keys to play when they come up. If I only had to worry about hitting 4 or 5 piano keys when they came up in a piano song I could do it lol wouldn't say I could play piano though.
ooo, handbells are one of my favorite instruments. by their nature playing them combines music and dance. is that you at a mass ring?
I enjoyed playing them they sound so nice
I know the proper way to ring and hold a note for handbells. I have very good rhythm and I can keep time without a metronome perfectly. But none of it is really knowledge on why I am playing a F#.
Like can I play handbells, yes. But do I really know how to play them. Not really.
Nope just random photo on internet I could find with my sized bells ha
i mean if you're in the bay area the guy who taught me to ring is putting together a 5-octave group to start ringing in january and potentially gigging starting june or september
Very far from it or I'd definitely check it out
Handbells are definitely underrated as an instrument
yeah i wish i still had the time to do it. one of my friends (funny enough, i taught this one how to ring) now has a 7-octave set and every once in a while i think about stealing his identity and then running off with his bells.
