Ring the bell

Jennifer Lucy Allan rings time on the outgoing year, and prepares to usher in the new, reflecting on the significance of the sound of bells in music.

Jennifer Lucy Allan rings time on the outgoing year, and prepares to usher in the new, with selections that reflect the significance of the use of bells in music. The sound of good omens and bad, and a consistent sonic presence across genres and cultures, the bell appears in Tibetan music and gamelan, and as cowbells and chimes. We hear Silvia Tarozzi and Deborah Walker make music with their bicycle bells, while Charlemagne Palestine composes minimalism for a church belfry. We鈥檒l almost meet traditional Afro-Peruvian Christmas carols accompanied by foot-stomping, violins and bells, and music created with Tomoko Sauvage's porcelain bowls, made from casts originally used to make bells. Plus we鈥檒l be digging out some music from Bell Labs, a pioneering centre for electronic music in the 20th Century.
