27 April Bell-ringing master class

Moscow has plenty of churches. I checked the statistics and several years ago it was over 1200! 🙂

Russian church architecture and religious traditions are unique and are intrinsic part of our culture.

One of the interesting aspects is bell ringing tradition. If you ever wondered, it’s actually not a “random cacophony” 🙂 There are 4 main types of bell ringing and they are different, suitable to the event that is being celebrated or lamented.

It also requires some skill. The courses to become a professional bell-ringer last about 3 months, but we can “test” it in a couple of hours! It is fun to learn or at least “touch” how the new skills feel like.

One needs to use both their hands and legs to ring the church bells.

Our studio for the bell-ringing master-class is located in a real belfry. Try it to see if you like it! You will definitely have a fun and memorable day!
