American carillon, from early monastic bells to English change ringing in churches, bells have defined the social and religious atmosphere of a country.

Dun's Symphony 1997, which was inspired by the discovery of a set of 2,400-year-old Chinese bells and features in tomorrow's Prom. Producer Jessica Isaacs
