Rockefeller Chapel Carillon
United States
Приєднався 29 сер 2018
The Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Carillon, dating from the early 1930s, was the masterwork of the Gillett & Johnston bell foundry of Croydon, England. Carillons of this size had never before been made, and have not been made again since that time. The Chicago instrument, comprising 72 bells and 100 tons of bronze, is the 3rd heaviest carillon in the world. Its bells were cast over a three-year period and include a massive 18.5 ton bourdon sounding a low C#. The carillon was installed during the summer of 1932, and was dedicated during Thanksgiving week of that year.
University Carillonist Alex Johnson and members of the UChicago Guild of Carillonists perform recitals twice daily each weekday of the academic year at 12 and 5 PM, and on Sunday mornings after 11 AM services. Please check the Carillon Tower Tour Schedule for information about Carillon Tower Tours which are generally offered Tuesdays-Fridays at 11:30 AM and 4:30 PM during weeks 2-8 of the UChicago academic quarters.

I really appreciate this. Wonderful performance of a wonderful piece in a wonderful setting.
26:59 Handel Passacaglia
Beautiful arrangements and beautiful playing. I think "Hall of the Mountain King" really stood out the most, just fantastic. Thank you for sharing your talent!
You would be shocked to know this didn't actually originated from an Anime.
will miss this next year <3
guess you'll have to learn it yourself
Brawo😊👏👍🌟
The swingingq bells are part of the Carrilon and the heaviest bells are known as bourdon bells, they were cast by Gillett and Johnston of Croydon UK. They are harmonically tuned bells which is why they sound amazing. There is also 10 chiming bells which are hung dead, so ie dont swing, these were cast by the Whitechapel bell foundry of Londoon in 1908. However there is another peal of English Change ringing bells cast by Taylors of Loughborough in 2022
3:36 hour chime
is this a clip before joey moved?
Is this at the Riverside Church in NYC?
No this is the University of Chicago in Illinois.
@@KadenStenka Thanks, I figured that out later. I live in NJ directly across the Hudson from the Riverside Church. We enjoy listening to the carillon as sound travels very well over water.
Excellent playing! Maybe I should consider learning to play this amazing instrument someday.
Leider fehlt hier die zweitgrößte Glocke f°. / Unfortunately, the second largest bell f° is missing here.
That bench is driving me crazy. The flopping and stupid upholstering. Everyone knows that organists prefer a stool that is covered with velvet!
💀 Thats scary
It’s unbelievable that you have to move your butt and use both hands and feet to play such an ancient instrument. It’s so cool!!
🎉 💙
one of my favorites!
I am distraught by how uncomfortable she is
Me gusta mucho . alimento para el alma.grado 33

Suggestion, play a bunch of Mario music. It would sound awesome and I would love it so much!
👏👏
Thank you to whose who made this possible.

And can y’all do a video of every hour chime at Rockefeller Chapel?
2:58 it’s either the automatic bells or the hour time😅
Looks like I was the seventeen hundredth subscriber! Cheers! Bravo!
Can y’all do all the Westminster chimes
Well played! That was impressive!
Well today I guess I learned there's a carillon in the US
Man, hwo are you, it's amazing, i don't have any words to describe how it breathtaking!
This is so cool! Thanks for sharing!
Brawo 🤗👍
I wonder with some electrical actuation if you could add "carillon" as a stop to an organ.... (talking an actual bell carrilion just played from an organ console)
I think there are already organs with a carillon stop (not sure though)
awesome! what is the name of this instrument?
Carillon
This was so fun to watch. You guys did amazing. I love this song and this happens to be a really unique instrument. I've never heard or seen one before.
WOW. That was awesome!
😃
🥰
Благодарствую. 🙏🏼👍🏼🤔
This was absolutely lovely! Thank you so much for posting this video.
I studied and worked on The University of Chicago campus for 25 years, and most every day I heard the carillon of Rockefeller Chapel and the change ringing of the bells of Mitchell Tower (awesome trebble bobbing!). Lord forgive me, but I took their beautiful and sonorous peels for granted. Now I have been away from the University for more than 25 years, and even until now, not a day goes by that I still don't miss the bells. Crescat scientia; vita excolatur!
Says the performer's name is Peter but this person looks definitely a girl to me.😂
How did she learn this exactly?
This is opening from Neon genesis evangelion.
Mafia goes to church
Love that Lowest note! BONG!!! 😊
que som horrível e muitas vezes desafinado,,,,, inútil
How does a beginner get to practice this without annoying all the neighbors?
wait this says phantom of the opera not a cruel angels thesis?
