Simple strokes of hand bell

Handbell is a kind of hand crank percussion instrument. It consists of three parts: bell body, handle and hammer. The bell body is the component that determines the sound of the handbell and also determines the pitch of a single handbell. It is generally made of copper. The handle is usually made of leather, but there are also handles made of plastic. The hammer is fixed in the bell body by a hinge, and the loudness of the handbell can be determined by adjusting the hammer. Musicians can play in many ways, the most common way is hand-cranking. The hammer in the hand-cranked bell will collide with the bell body to produce sound. Since a single handbell only has a specific pitch, handbells generally contain several scale configurations.
