I remember reading a story about St Dunstan, that Satan was so infuriated about the saint's piety, that he was determined to lure him into sin. Satan disguised himself as a beautiful maiden and attempted to seduce him whilst he was working in his forge. The more Dunstan rebuffed Satan, the more infuriated the Devil became and redoubled his efforts to get the saint to forget his vows. Satan was so determined to have Dunstan that as he flounced around the forge attempting to seduce him, he didn't realise the skirts he was wearing were riding higher and higher, showing his legs and cloven hooves. Without even looking up, St Dunstan picked up his tongs from the forge and pinched Satan by his nose forcing him to leave him alone.

I've always loved bells. I became intrigued by change-ringing when I saw 'The Nine Tailors' back in the 1970s, with Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter Wimsey. The mystery hinges around a cipher disguised as the notation for a peal of bells.

Smashing documentary. Lovely ringing. The beautiful Steadmans triple half muffled method is just mesmerising. Nothing like it in the world. I remember Christmas Eve leaving Amsterdam the ringing there. Hymns, Just beautiful. We are ringing bells now every day at 1800 hrs marking the watch. While covid 19 pandemic. Chinese bells, wonderfull.

The middle of this documentary kind of exposes the fact that the reformation in England was largely about the looting of church property by the aristocracy. He mentions the old abandoned cathedral with the large bell tower was sold by Henry to a nobleman.

Can any of you camp people (campanologists, I mean) help me out? At 02:02 in the wonderful recording of the "spoof" version of Ave Maria by Vavilov/Caccini, as sung by Sumi Jo, (kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJu9aZl4fNmAl6s) the orchestration sounds [to me] like a glorious peel of bells. And I told an email correspondent so. And I further asserted that they must be English bells, because no other country rings its bells in this way. Only later did I realise that I had no idea what I was talking about. Can anybody rescue my credibility?

The UK would probably notice the sound of bells more if it wasn't always the style of 'change-ringing'. Do more of the continental sound, and you could have more noticing different sounds, celebrations and reasons for the bellringing event.
@henryjohnfacey82133 жыл бұрын
no it wouldn't be English change ringing would it. Plus the ringing METHODS i e (tunes) are based on what we now call nursery rhymes or street calls. Example's London Pride, (also a flower) Pop goes the weezal. Whittingtons. Turn again Whittington Lord Mayor of London. Oranges and lemons. Just to name a few. If you listen carefully. Also at 1200 on this video that background sound is called FIRERING (HIPS) very difficult to get right. If you listen very carefully you might be lucky to hear the English beautiful half muffled ringing. Special pads attached to the clanger. Go to steadmans triples half muffed at Worster Cathedral on utube. Now steadmans method is named after the body guard OF RICHARD I who was a MUSLIM. No training takes a long time. Great fun and traditional and culturally English. ONLY IF YOU LISTERN. Where my Daughter was married Urswick Cumbria the bell there was paid for by the standed bearer for HENRY V after the battle of AGINCOURT.

@@henryjohnfacey8213 You are completely dismissing the bell ringing culture from before the introduction of change ringing. On the timeline of history change ringing is rather "modern". For well over a thousand years bells have been tolled just like on the continent. I love change ringing. especially call changes. ANd they are indeed English. However regular simple tolling is JUST as English ...... and I even dare to say that it is more English than change ringing...... considering the longer history of tolling. Besides that why do you find it necessary to put he word Muslim in all caps? You do realize that the legend of Richard 1 having a muslim body guard is a 20th century myth right? For which by the way there isnt a single shred of evidence.

Farmers in the UK would be called by the church bells. Bells that spin 360 degrees on a wheel are much louder than bells that are mouth down so they would be heard easily. (also the UK is a smaller country than USA) An old school may have a mounted bell though.

@Herr_Flick_of_ze_Gestapo Жыл бұрын
ANY loud sound will cause hearing damage in the long run. it all depends on the tower. and about ear protection. By the way this loudness was being used in the netherlands in the 16th and 17thcenturies. Sometimes a criminal could be sentenced to deafness. where the criminal was brought up into the tower, and being tied onto some beams near the largest bell. then the bell was rung so the criminal lost his hearing.

Must the bell be rotated?
@Herr_Flick_of_ze_Gestapo Жыл бұрын
no. In orthodox countries bells are fixed and unmovable. only the clappers were being moved. kinda like a dutch beiaard. There are 3 main ways of rotating bells. tolling .... which is how it is done in the netherlands for instance...... thats just swinging the bell. then there is english change ringing in wich the bells have a starting position upside down. and then there is mediteranian maner.... in which the bell has a contrawight on the top and the entire bell is being spun around and around. without the aid of a rope. it is just manually spinned around. tolling the bell like in the netherlands, germany, etc gives the best sound and the full potentiaal of the bell. The english upsde down manner might result in more volume however the quality of sound isnt that good. because the clapper is resting against the bell .... which muffles down the vibration of the bell. mediteranian manner doesnt sound too well either. its tedious, quite dangerous and inconsistent sound.

When God found out. He was angry. His wrath was on old Catholic Churches and Old Things, including Ceridwen who was as old as a Celtic Pagan Before Romans even. She won again and her children still panic if the bells ever stop. To them it sounds like it should have been dinner time. But it was work time. And witches children are notoriously sloth.
