Peal of bells

2007-01-19 06:44:28 · answer #1 · answered by Amy d 3 · 1 0

A carillon is a musical instrument composed of at least 23 cup-shaped bells played from a baton keyboard using fists and feet (such an instrument with fewer than this number of bells is known as a chime). Carillon bells are made of bell bronze, approximately 78% copper and 22% tin. Carillons are normally housed in bell towers. The carillon has the widest dynamic range of any mechanical (non-electric) musical instrument. The music made is also known as a carillon.

I know it is really "a peal of bells". But I think "a ding-dong of bells" sounds much better! :-)

I am not sure about the noun, but the noise they make is a tintinabulation, a lovely word.
