Peal Compositions Committee 2006 Annual Report
The committee currently holds no face to face meetings, but is in regular electronic contact via email.
The committee continues to produce regular pages of compositions for publication in The Ringing World. Selecting (and, at times, soliciting) suitable compositions has resulted in pages which have covered a wide range of methods and complexity as well as special themes e.g. for the Trafalgar bicentenary. Pages have been published at a healthy rate of a pproximately one per month.
The committee also continues work on several new print collections. The Stedman Caters and Cinques collection and Handbell collection are progressing well but are highly labour-intensive and completion is still some way off. Work on a new Spliced Minor Collection has been begun with the aim of bringing together old and new material in one volume.
The on-line collection currently contains nearly 4,000 peal compositions, and continues to be frequently consulted by a wide variety of users. It can be visited through the committee's web page at
