Carillon rings true for young ears
One of the world’s leading carillonneurs, Boudewijn Zwart, gave four recitals on his remarkable travelling carillon, or bell organ, at Cork’s Rory Gallagher Music Library in the central library.
The massive instrument, which consists of 50 bronze bells housed inside a large glass box, weighs 2,800kg — about the same as 30 baby elephants.
