- The arrival of the D and G Bells from the John Taylor & Co foundry in Loughborough, UK on 31 January 2020 meant that the National Carillon was better able to compete on a world stage with more complicated music.
The larger of the two, the G Bell, was renamed the Ngunnawal Bell after the original owners of the land, the Ngunnawal People of the Australian Capital Territory, and was inscribed with the following:
YUMALUNDI DHAWURA NGUNNAWALNGU NGANAA
GURALILI YARABI DHAWURA MANAGAY
WELCOME TO NGUNNAWAL COUNTRY

When it comes to heavy bells Taylor's of Loughborough are the best.
The bells are tuned using a system called Simpson tuning.
Different parts of the bells have metal taken off on the inside to give 5 harmonics.
They are the strike note
An Octave below
An Octave above
A minor third
And the dominant which is a perfect 5th.
Gillett and Johnston's large bells are nicer to listen to then Taylors.

And yes gillets are gems with out a doubt
Beautiful bells sound and story. thank you
Why dont you créate a school for teaching that art of Bells casting in South América or any where as a treasure of Man Kind.
