There’s a recording here! th-cam.com/video/Vx71q6Y9eEo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7IuAfsY3klOU9AnO But you’re right it’s very beautiful! I’ll try to find time to learn it

@jmin.beiaardier thanks for the link. I just listened to it. And yeah, I would love to hear your version of it. Keep up the good stuff, man. Also, as a side note, how did you learn the Carillon is there like a small one that can be used to practice. I can't imagine trying to learn a new instrument so publicly, lol.

I learned when I was in college. There was a tower on our campus and a student group that played regularly. I studied with Joey Brink, if you've seen his stuff! A lot of carillons have a practice console closer to the ground floor, either electronic or tone bar/pipe. However, they're not weighted so in order to get a feel for the bells in a certain piece you have to practice on the real thing at some point. It's not as public as you think though! People can't see you, and vice versa, so you get used to being in your own little space.

@jmin.beiaardier that is very interesting. Thanks for the insight into such a unique instrument.

Thank youuuu😍

Glad you enjoyed it! Bread is pretty good though 😋

There's a system of mics placed throughout the tower at each belfry that allows for this more balanced sound. If you were to record the sound within the playing cabin, you'd end up with a bunch of humming and clanking noises from the instrument's mechanics and the general ambience of having lights and a computer fan in the same room. As for external wind noise, it just happened to be a sunny day without any traffic! With the way the louvres of the tower are set up, wind noise can actually be pretty loud even if it's just a little. Luckily that noise can't be heard if you're listening from the ground. If you're unlucky in your recording session you might hear some honking or a siren too

what are you doing
