  • Joanne Droppers Collection Biography Joanne Was Born In
    Joanne Droppers Collection Biography Joanne was born in Ithaca, NY, on March, 29, 1932, the youngest child of Walter C. and Minnie W. Muenscher. She graduated from Cornell University in 1953 with a bachelor’s degree in music. It was at Cornell that she met and dated Garrett Droppers, who sang in the choir she directed. They were married in August 1953. She originally came to Alfred in 1961, when Garrett was appointed a professor of history at Alfred University. The couple had lived in Madison, WI, and Orono, ME, before settling in Alfred. In addition to being a housewife and mother to their three children, Joanne was employed periodically as an administrative assistant. Joanne loved playing piano and singing with her family. She was organist for several Episcopal congregations, a hand bell ringer, and played violin in local community orchestras. In 1976, she became a member of the American Guild of Carillonneurs and in 1977 she was appointed carillonneur for Alfred University, a position she held for 17 years. As Alfred University carillonneur, Joanne toured the United States and Canada, performing on many North American carillons. She also composed and arranged a number of songs for carillon, including Bach’s Suite #11 for Lute and Tubular Bells. One of her favorite tunes was the Oscar Meyer Weiner jingle, which she arranged for carillon and played at Alfred’s annual Hot Dog Day celebration. Garrett Droppers predeceased Joanne in 1986, and after her retirement in 1994, she moved to Arlington, VA, to be near her grandsons. While in Virginia, she continued her musical pursuits by playing carillons in the area.

  • A New History of the Carillon
    A New History of the Carillon TIFFANY K. NG Rombouts, Luc. Singing Bronze: A History of Carillon Music. Translated by Com- municationwise. Leuven: Leuven University Press, 2014, 368 pp. HE CARILLON IS HIDDEN IN plain sight: the instrument and its players cannot be found performing in concert halls, yet while carillonneurs and Tkeyboards are invisible, their towers provide a musical soundscape and focal point for over six hundred cities, neighborhoods, campuses, and parks in Europe, North America, and beyond. The carillon, a keyboard instrument of at least two octaves of precisely tuned bronze bells, played from a mechanical- action keyboard and pedalboard, and usually concealed in a tower, has not received a comprehensive historical treatment since André Lehr’s The Art of the Carillon in the Low Countries (1991). A Dutch bellfounder and campanologist, Lehr contributed a positivist history that was far-ranging and thorough. In 1998, Alain Corbin’s important study Village Bells: Sound and Meaning in the Nineteenth-Century French Countryside (translated from the 1994 French original) approached the broader field of campanology as a history of the senses.1 Belgian carillonneur and musicologist Luc Rombouts has now compiled his extensive knowledge of carillon history in the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United States, as well as of less visible carillon cultures from Curaçao to Japan, into Singing Bronze: A History of Carillon Music, the most valuable scholarly account of the instrument to date. Rombouts’s original Dutch book, Zingend Brons (Leuven: Davidsfonds, 2010), is the more comprehensive version of the two, directed at a general readership in the Low Countries familiar with carillon music, and at carillonneurs and music scholars.

The development of change ringing in the early 17th century was mainly due to the invention of the full-circle wheel on which the bells were mounted. By pulling a rope, a bell would make a rotation of almost 360 degrees with a period of approximately two seconds. The time between two strikes of the same bell could be controlled rather accurately, which made it possible to ring a certain number of bells all after each other and keep repeating this in the same order.

  • Campanologist Chronicles
    25 24 CAMPANOLOGIST CHRONICLES The Parish Church has an up and coming band of ringers. Not only do they ring the bells for Sunday services and Tuesday practice night’s, but they also help with the ringing the church bells at Albury and Little Hadham. There aren’t as many ringers about as there once were. Bell ringing is something for both young and old. It helps keep you both physi- cally and mentally fit. It is a quite a commitment, week in week out ringing for both Sunday services and practice nights, as well as the occasional wedding and christening. Many of you will remember Charlie Jordan, he was taught to ring when he was 12 years old and was still ringing at 80. The bells at Much Hadham are hung for full circle ringing. This is where a wheel and rope are attached to the side each bell and the bell is swung back and forth on a headstock by a bell ringer through a little more than 360 degrees to get bell over the balance point for setting in a safe position of rest. Learning to ring is a bit like learning to ride bike. Letting go of the rope at the right time so you don’t go up in the air, helps! The ringing that takes place in known as ‘change ringing’ with both call chang- es and method ringing being rung. Due to the full circle ringing each bell can be carefully controlled to ‘strike’ with its clapper once every change. The simplest change is called ‘Rounds’ where the bells are in the order of 12345678, bells can be called to move one place at a time to reach tuneful changes such as ‘Queens’ 13572468 or ‘Whittington’s’ 12753468 “turn again Whittington” as Dick did all those years ago on his way to London.

    JUNE 3 - 6 2021 2021 Live Stream CARILLON INTERNATIONAL 1 THOMAS REES MEMORIAL CARILLON MEMORIAL REES THOMAS 59TH 59TH FESTIVAL FESTIVAL THEMATIC SUMMER CONCERTS MAY 19 - AUGUST 25 AUGUST - 19 MAY CONCERTS SUMMER THEMATIC INTRODUCTION What a year! 2020 was one for the books! Since nobody knew how to adjust to the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020, the International Carillon Festival 2020 was cancelled. Fortunately, the Park District decided to continue the Thematic Wednesday Evening Summer Concerts which proved to be the correct choice. These concerts had record attendance and were more popular than ever. The concerts attracted new listeners and fans and both Rees Carillon and Washington Park had a resurgence of popularity as visitors from Springfield & afield rediscovered the joys of outside activities. Once word spread of our continuing carillon concerts, parking lots filled and overflow parking was needed. Adding live-streaming of these concerts was a tremendous asset as listeners from around the world began tuning in weekly. Many former Springfield residents tuned in, reconnected with us and shared fun memories about the carillon and their time in Springfield. An oft-repeated comment was that the 2020 Thematic concerts contained great variety and music familiar to wide audiences. This year, 2021, marks the 60th anniversary of the Thomas Rees Memorial Carillon. To celebrate the anniversary, the Rees Carillon Society/Carillon Belles commissioned Mr. Frank DellaPenna to write a work for carillon. Many will recognize Mr. DellaPenna from his travelling carillon show, “Cast in Bronze,” which performed in the International Carillon Festival in 2012. His new work, “Seasons Suite,” consists of four individual movements written in New Age style.

  • Saved by the Bells: a Look at Campanological Rights of U.S
    SAVED BY THE BELLS: A LOOK AT CAMPANOLOGICAL RIGHTS OF U.S. CHURCHES Brett J. Haroldson* I. INTRODUCTION: AN OVERVIEW OF CHURCH BELLS IN CULTURE AND COURT It would be hard for someone living in medieval Europe to envision a future where a Christian bishop would be imprisoned simply for ringing the bells of his church. After all, bells were among the first musical instruments known to humankind.1 The melodious and often thunderous sounds they produce have influenced the very course of history itself.2 Bells have been used throughout history as symbols of status and social dominance, as weapons against evil, as effective and often elaborate communicatory devices, as musical instruments, and as tools of religious devotion.3 Yet in 2009, in Phoenix, Arizona, Bishop Rick Painter was imprisoned for ten days for ringing the bells of Christ the King Church in violation of a local noise ordinance.4 In Saint Mark Roman Catholic Parish v. City of Phoenix,5 Bishop Painter and two other local churches hauled the City of Phoenix into federal court to defend its noise ordinance.6 The result: an injunction against the city preventing it from enforcing its noise ordinance against “sound generated in the course of religious expression.”7 Although at first blush this seems like a coup for religious freedom of expression advocates, the ruling was largely due to deficiencies in the ordinance itself that seemed to exempt certain institutions, while leaving religious ones out in the * Associate Notes Editor, Rutgers Journal of Law & Religion, Rutgers University School of Law, Candidate for Juris Doctor, May 2016.
