@louisisyourgod Pigs to ring though!! Overhauled a few years back, tenor reduced from 27cwt to 25cwt, long draught, VERY oddstruck, slow-turning, need I go on...
Fairly rewarding sound, but I remember them being slightly quiet in the RR, and not as nice sounding as from outside!!
-
Tunes are never rung from English tower bells, only mathematical sequences. I can assure you, no one got into trouble! =]
-
nice old style sounding bells
-
Change ringing is a system based on permutations of a sequence of numbers (each bell having a number), so hearing a tune would not be possible. The bells in this video were cast in 1771.
-
there are bells in the 1812 overture, but certainly not this kind of ringing.
-
In the 1812 Overture, by Tchaikovsky, there is a part in which this sequence plays.

i read your description for this video, the reason they usually ring them like this before a wedding or some sort of service at the church

loud loud bells.... sounds great but if i had to listen to that for hours i would really have a headache...

We were very sad that we didn't take more video of Salisbury. We loved it there. I see a lot of videos with the Cathedral, but none with the area around the main library or the mall. Such a shame...

Audinos,
Thanks. I had no idea. Can't say I understand the purpose, but it's good to know no one will get in trouble for that ringing. :)
