It is a Maas-Rowe, which uses little metal rods to generate the tone. They still make these things and they are the most artificial-sounding fake bells in the whole sad industry.
I saw another video where four bronze bells sounded the Angelus and Westminster Quarters from this same cathedral, so perhaps the Maas-Rowe "carillon" has been retired.
@jestavonation i love Santa Fe... So rich in spirit... in places that is... lol
You live there I take it? I do envy you. I show at a gallery just off the squar. I look forward to getting back down there some day soon. Happy New Year. :)
yes, i live only a few blocks from the cathedral,it's an honor and i am proud to be of true Spanish, European decent.All are welcome in this city of holy faith,that is Santa Fe.And may your New Year have many blessings.
unfortunately, this is a computer! Real bells would sound much more better!
