A very interesting carillon canberra post and really sad that he is so into oblivion. Since so much

That Nova's Bell Tower Project would generate so many ideas, they probably would have never thought possible. Angelika, Nova and I, we now have written several posts on this topic.
Verknüpfend with my today's post, I have looked back at all the pretty bell towers. Concepts and structures I have designed what these posts have been written. This then lead into the midst of my today's post.
Nova and Angelika showing bell towers that are simultaneously carillon canberra steeples, in Nova's bell towers in Tenerife, the bell can be seen from the outside. In Angelica's bell towers from the Rhineland (except bell tower No. 3) are the bells - probably - housed in a separate belfry in the church tower and not be seen from outside.
In my second post about bell towers I had mentioned the importance of chimes that belong in Belgium and northern France to town halls. A city bell structured time and gave the signal for opening and closing of the city gates, marked the beginning and end of the working or rang to festivities. In these belfries in Belgium and northern France are today carillons or chimes. Also in Germany are many places to hear chimes in churches or town halls.
The construction of chimes or carillons is a craftsmanship in the 17th Century was developed in the Netherlands. The bell ringer or Carilloneur was a separate profession which had to be learned. To qualify as Glockenspiel, had the Carilloneur can play over at least two octaves chimes. For this, the carillon requires at least 23 bells.
On the occasion of National Garden Show 1979 in Bonn, the organizers had the idea to recreate a carillon in the tradition of the carillon. The construction was done in the Netherlands, since there this tradition is particularly rooted. This carillon has 23 bells exactly carillon canberra to count than chimes. It was built to metal construction with the hanging bells - without carillon canberra bell tower or belfry. At the Federal Garden Show the carillon was one of the key attractions and a Dutch Carilloneur played during the opening times.
When the federal garden show was over, the chimes found a place in the city park of Bad Godesberg. The National Garden Show is now back more than thirty years. After that has been played on the carillon neither been nor ever done something. It has been simply forgotten. Rust has formed between the metal parts. In the glass cover openings are recessed as buttons, lace and trains need the supply of air. Thus penetrates rainwater. Probably the carillon is played on again only after a thorough carillon canberra renovation. carillon canberra
But missing from the city treasury - of course - for decades the money. Although the city of Bonn has money to build, for example, tram stops in an architecturally prettified form new, although the old tram bodies completely satisfy their purpose. This is like in other cities: something is de-prioritized, it lacks even dasGeld to remove the horrible daubs on the concrete base.
In connection with a gazebo I had in Nova's blog recently read that the Spanish carillon canberra mentality, building fabric to obtain fundamentally carillon canberra different than in Germany. carillon canberra This I have to revise: Decay is spreading in Germany. And this in places where it is quite painful.
only once on the fly because of your name change. carillon canberra Your blog will now appear in my reader list at the bottom ... there something wrong with the date not ... do not know if the info is important for you? warm greeting from Heidi Troll Woodpecker Reply Delete
The first sounded so promising that the carillon was named after the Federal Garden Show a new home, but as I read, it bums now due to lack of money to keep it repaired, before him, a shame, Dieter. In our latitudes also so many things scruffy, but there are also positive developments. There you will find sponsors and citizens' initiatives are established to obtain obtaining value also.

A very interesting carillon canberra post and really sad that he is so into oblivion. Since so much effort is given to investing money and sweat needed to let something now so degenerated. Since I have no sympathy for. Especially when you can see other useless investments. I'm sure it could also be a magnet for tourists, so I have seen are on carillons already many people in D.. Maybe times the regional press NEN small note on it ;-) I'm just here with you then landed, and am thrilled that the idea s
