Belle Musique is an all-female duo of singers who play English Handbells. We specialize in performing at weddings, funerals, holiday/Christmas events and other special occasions throughout the year. We considerate an honor to bring our music to you or your loved one's biggest event, celebration, or remembrance. We believe that music should be beautiful to listen to as well as to watch, so it is our very aim to bring that to each and every performance.
This duo was fantastic to work with, and such a treat to see them perform for some songs as a surprise to my husband. They helped me coordinate everything from the beginning and were phenomenal to work with the entire time. I’m so happy I found them and hope to work with them in the future again!
Response from Belle Musique:

Thanks for the kind words. You made our gigging season so special. We will work together again :)

When I explained that I wanted my mother's funeral to have a joyful ending, they got it. I chose a song that was unusual and they leaned into learning it. We were hit with the rain storms, so Instead of a graveside service we had to pivot to have them play in the church. The Catholic Mass had it's specific needs for timing and were specific about where and when they could set up so as not to interfere with the sacrament. It wasn't ideal for the musicians but Bell Musique made everything smooth, thoughtful and absolutely lovely. As they began to play, the church filled with "bell music" and my mother's husband smiled and said "she would have loved this." That was all I needed. Everyone was enchanted and it exactly matched mom's personality. They brought joy to a sad and rainy day. Their presence at my mom's funeral was like having angels in attendance. Thank you thank you thank you!
This event was one of the absolutely most successful events we’ve had at our assisted living community. If you have the chance to hire them, you will not be disappointed.
From the start to finish a great experience. Gig Salad app was easy to use, Belle Musique (BM) responded immediately, both online and by telephone. BM arrived early and set-up was quick. The performance was beautiful and interactive. So many favorite songs and a special Happy Birthday to my Dad who shared this performance with other residence at senior board and care home. A very special evening, it warmed my heart to see my Dad smile and laugh. Many thanks 😊
Our clients very much enjoyed the performance!
Arrived early, engaged the crowd, played beautifully. Super nice duo... Couldn't have asked for anything more! They were amazing!
Belle Musique were the perfect performers for our backyard Christmas gathering. Not only did they play the favorite sacred Christmas songs we requested, they sang on some of the songs with unexpected beautiful voices - an extra treat which encouraged those who attended to join in! They were such a lovely addition to our assembly of friends. We are keeping their contact information for our in-church gathering we hope to have next year. They were engaging and very much enjoyed! Thank you Belle Musique.
Our guests absolutely loved Belle Musique. They were a neat treat to have at our Christmas party. Super easy to work with, really friendly and accommodating. Arrived on time and played beautifully. I highly recommend them.
Their performance perfectly set the tone for our event. Very talented. Highly recommend
They were so great!!! It was the perfect entertainment for our corporate holiday event. Hand bells are always fun to watch, and the Belles added even more with their beautiful costumes. The music was just amazing!
The Belle Musique were so great at our event. We were doing a multicultural celebration and they were even willing to learn a new song to help tie our celebration together! They were super nice and communicative. Would definitely recommend! The bells are so unique and beautiful!
Belle Musique trio was very professional. They arrived on time, set up and the room was silent when they began to play. The bell ringing was superb and their voices were beautiful. Erin spoke thoughout with information about the bells and asked us questions. The group thought Belle Musique was amazing. Their costumes were cute and tasteful. It was a wonderful performance. I would hire them again in a minute. Bravo and outstanding. Awesome and amazing sums it up.

Audience members can expect to hear the clear and bright sounds of English Handbells being rung in harmony from our duo, Belle Musique. These sounds evoke feelings of cheer and gladness throughout the holiday season. Handbells complete a wedding celebration with sounds of hopefulness for the couple's happy future together. They also bring comfort to those grieving their loss. Visually, audience members are enthralled by the beauty and elegance of the shiny brass bells and the tones that come from them.
Belle Musique is a duo of skilled and talented women who have degrees in Music and teach music, specifically vocal performance and piano. We have blended the very unique genre of handbell music with singing and have brought this new, yet very traditional style of music to the forefront. Historically, bells rung for Weddings, Funerals, and Christmas celebrations date back through the centuries. It is exciting to see, hear, and experience this modern version of music from the past. We have a wide song selection from classical, traditional, religious, folk, and even Disney.

Belle Musique has been inspired by the many large handbell choirs often seen in churches throughout the world. And because of this inspiration, we have found a way to bring this beautiful genre of music to the masses in a smaller and more intimate ensemble.
