The Raleigh Ringers have premiered several handbell compositions by nationally-known handbell composers including
William Payn, Hart Morris, Arnold Sherman, Karen Buckwalter, Carl Wiltse, Cathy Moklebust, Bill Griffin, and Fred
Gramann. The group has worked with Jeffers Publications to introduce "The Raleigh Ringers Series" , a set of handbell
publications intended for advanced choirs. To date, The Raleigh Ringers have released four very popular CDs: "The
Raleigh Ringers," "Impressions of the Season," "More," and "Going to Extremes." In addition, the group has produced
a full length concert video, "One Winter Evening at Meymandi," available in both DVD and VHS. An hour portion of this
video was used as a holiday special syndicated across 250+ PBS stations and affiliates in 45 states! David is a graduate of the Pennsylvania State University and has studied conducting privately with Dr. William A. Payn

ever AGEHR-sponsored event for community ringers entitled "Pinnacle 2000," held in Las
Vegas. David has led handbell festivals and workshops in North Carolina, South Carolina,
