Currently there is no ringing taking place across UK towers, a situation not encountered since the Second World War. Today’s bells were recorded at Westminster Abbey during the VE Anniversary celebrations in May 2015. There are ten bells with a thirty hundredweight tenor tuned to D. They can be heard ringing "Rounds" interspersed with the art of "Firing" when the bells are deliberately struck simultaneously- a traditional method of marking a celebration. It’s difficult to achieve well and is rarely practised. It’s heard in honour of the VE Day 75th anniversary on Friday 8th May.
