“The Musical Hand-Bell Ringer’s Instructor,” by Mr. S. B. Goslin (Warner & Sons), will prove, to a certain class, an interesting pamphlet. Many of the illustrations are curious.
The Bazaar, February 23rd, 1880.
We have from Messrs. Warner & Sons, of the Crescent Foundry, Cripplegate, E.C., two pamphlets on the art of hand-bell ringing, both written by Mr. S. B. Goslin, who is, practically and theoretically, an authority on the subject. The first of these, “The A B C of Musical Hand-Bell Ringing,” comprises short notes for young beginners, a collection of easy tunes, arranged, by means of numerals, for those without any knowledge of music, and a general guide to the principles of change ringing. The second, “The Musical Hand-Bell Ringer’s Instructor,” contains a short historical account of small bells, a practical description of hand-bells, and the rudiments of the music played on them. Messrs. Warner are eminent as bell founders, and their two publications may be relied on as trustworthy guides.
