He is a graduate of Yale University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with honors in music composition in 2018. In 2019, he graduated with great distinction from the Royal Carillon School "Jef Denyn" in Mechelen, Belgium. During his studies in Mechelen, he was a United States Fellow of the Belgian American Educational Foundation. In fall 2021, he will begin a year-long artist residency at the United States Foundation in Paris as a Fulbright Scholar. A recipient of the joint Fulbright-Harriet Hale Woolley Award, he will study in the music composition studio at the École Normale de Musique de Paris while on leave from Duke. Helen Hofmeister received her carillon instruction at the University of Kansas as a student of Albert Gerken. She is a carillonneur member of the GCNA (Guild of Carillonneurs in North America) and is a past member of the Board, the Exam Committee, and the Barnes Scholarship Committee. She has performed carillon recitals in sixteen states, as well as Belgium and the Netherlands, including International Festivals in Springfield, Illinois, and at the Bok Tower in Lake Wales, Florida. Helen holds both Bachelor and Master of Music degrees in organ performance from the University of Kansas and has done post-graduate study in Cologne, Germany as a recipient of the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) scholarship awarded through the Fulbright Committee. She currently serves as Minister of Music at Westminster Presbyterian Church, Grand Rapids, Michigan, a position she has held since 2006. 7 Michelle S. Lam is the carillonist at Grosse Pointe Memorial Church. She also plays weekly recitals at the University of Michigan. Michelle has been playing carillon for over ten years, starting from when she was an undergraduate at Wellesley College. While she is not playing music, Michelle is doing research in international trade and labor to complete her PhD in economics at the University of Michigan. Michelle's hobbies include drinking tea, collecting postcards, and hiking. John Widmann is the City Carillonneur for the City of Frederick, Maryland, where he plays recitals every Sunday at 12:30, year-round, on the Joseph Dill Baker Carillon in Baker Park. He has held that position for twenty-nine years. Mr. Widmann graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and completed in his Master of Music degree from Towson University in 2011. In addition to his Sunday recitals, he retired last month from Frederick County Public Schools where he was a General/Vocal Music teacher. He is also a freelance organist and conductor. Mr. Widmann maintains an active concert schedule, and has played frequently in the US, along with recitals in Belgium, France, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, England, Canada, and the Netherlands Antilles. He lives in Frederick with his wife and sometimes their two grown children. 8 The Memorial Church Carillon A carillon is a musical instrument consisting of 23 or more cast bronze bells that have been precisely tuned so that many bells can be played from an expressive keyboard that provides variation of touch. Carillon bells are suspended stationary; only the clappers move. The clapper of each bell is connected by a simple horizontal and vertical linkage to the keyboards. The keys are arranged in the same pattern as are the keys of a piano. The pedalboard duplicates the lower half of the instrument so that two hands and two feet can be used to play the carillon. The Memorial Church carillon contains 48 bells spanning a four-octave range (omitting the lowest C#). The heaviest bell (bourdon) is pitched to C# almost one full octave below middle C. Some statistics may be helpful in better understanding the Memorial Church carillon. The Console Largest Bell Smallest Bell Weight 4700 lbs. 15 lbs. Diameter 4’10” 8” Height 4’ 5” Clapper weight 50 lbs 1 lb. Keyboard Range: 48 keys Pedalboard Range: 23 pedal keys Total instrument weight: more than 11 tons When the church was completed in 1927 a chime of 8 heavy and low pitched bells - C D E F G A B C – by Gillett & Johnston of Croydon, England, was installed. It was dedicated “To the Memory of Those Who Have Died in the Service of Our Country.” Hymn tunes were played electrically from the organ console in the sanctuary. A clock mechanism was also installed for sounding the “Westminster Quarters” and striking the hours. For the 25th anniversary of the church building in 1952, 39 bells by Petit & Fritsen of Aarle-Rixtel, the Netherlands, were added, creating a 47-bell carillon.

  • 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.

    8 BELL ARCHAEOLOGY BELLS OF THE BRITISH ISLES BY COUNTY (following, in general, the conventions of 'Dove's Guide for Church Bell Ringers' 10th edition, 2012 and its online version) Bells in England are followed by those in Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and finally those outside the United Kingdom, alphabetically by country. The Isles of Scilly, Isle of Man and Isle of Wight follow Hertfordshire, and the Channel Islands follow Cambridgeshire.
