 If you were able to hear them play on their last two visits to Hasbrouck Heights, you know you are in for another wonderful evening of music.  Jersey Jubilation is the premier community Handbell Choir in the area.  The choir was established in September 2004 to provide experienced ringers with an opportunity to share their love of hand bells through concerts.  The choir rings a variety of musical styles.  Please join us for a wonderful evening of music. 

  JJHC rings on two 5-octaves sets of Whitechapel English Handbells originally tuned using the analogue tuning system that was employed for years giving the Whitechapel Bells their distinctive clarity and overtone sound. In addition to the Whitechapel instruments, JJHC also rings a 5-octave set of Suzuki hand chimes which most closely matches the tonal mosaic that the ensemble wishes to present.
