Washington National Cathedral in the USA

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from Washington National Cathedral in the USA. The tower holds a peal of ten bells and was installed in 1963 by the Whitechapel Foundry. The Tenor weighs thirty two hundredweight and is tuned to D. At the time of the installation there were no experienced American ringers, so ten people from amongst the finest British bell-ringers travelled to Washington for the bells’ dedication and to ring the first full length peal. We hear now the present ringers of Washington National Cathedral ringing Stedman Caters.
