Triple Bob Major

Change-ringing in New York. This article is in the Boston Globe but the church in question is Trinity Church on Wall Street in New York. Trinity has a new set of 12 bells and is introducing change ringing to Trinity Church -- and possibly to New York.

For more about change ringing, Dublin's Christ Church Cathedral has a website with several recordings of their change ringing. The main page is here; the main bell page is here; most of the recordings can be found here.

And the most enjoyable way to learn a good deal about change ringing is via Dorothy Sayers' The Nine Tailors. Highly recommended.

[Thanks to Serge for setting me off on this tintinabulatory excursion.]
