Welcome to the the web site of
the
Denton Bell Band, Inc.  We
perform music with handbells,
chimes and synthesizer for local
events during the school year and
for audiences all across Texas
during our Annual Tour each
spring.  We receive support from
the Greater Denton Arts Council,
The Arts Guild of Denton, Texas
Commission on the Arts, and the
National Endowment for the Arts.  
Principal funding is from  our
friends in the community.

The man playing the
drum in the photo is
James Peacock.  He
was a member of the
Bell Band for many
years.  He lost a long
battle with Alzheimer's
disease in December.  
In February there was a
service in memory of
James at the Denton
State School Chapel.  
There were almost 200
people in attendance -
a fitting testimony to
the impact that he had
on many lives.  We will
miss James but will
remember all the good
things he taught us.
We are hoping to
eventually get some
sponsorship from
corporations.  We are
making some changes
that should help us be
more "marketable".
We know that we
cannot be that which
we are not, but if
changes can benefit
members in any way,
we need to move in
that direction.
If you have ideas and
want to help, please
contact Mr. Pinson.  
Your suggestions and
assistance are always
welcome.
