About the Course:

The carillon is the instrument at the top of the campanile and whose music you hear everyday when you go to class at 7:50am, noon, and 6pm.  In this course, you will learn about the carillon as well as the basic of how to play it.

The course is in two parts:

1) We will study about the history and the mechanics of the carillon.

2) The students will be paired up with student instructors and have one-on-one lessons for 5 weeks before the final performance on the actual carillon.

Note: Attendance, a noon concert report, and performing at the final recital is mandatory to pass the class.
