  • Church Bells. Part 1. Rev. Robert Eaton Batty
    CHURCH BELLS BY THE REV. ROBERT EATON BATTY, M.A. The Church Bell — what a variety of associations does it kindle up — how closely is it connected with the most cherished interests of mankind! And not only have we ourselves an interest in it, but it must have been equally interesting to those who were before us, and will pro- bably be so to those who are yet to come. It is the Churchman's constant companion — at its call he first enters the Church, then goes to the Daily Liturgy, to his Con- firmation, and his first Communion. Is he married? — the Church bells have greeted him with a merry peal — has he passed to his rest? — the Church bells have tolled out their final note. From a very early period there must have been some contrivance, whereby the people might know when to assemble themselves together, but some centuries must have passed before bells were invented for a religious purpose. Trumpets preceded bells. The great Day of Atonement amongst the Jews was ushered in with the sound of the trumpet; and Holy Writ has stamped a solemn and lasting character upon this instrument, when it informs us that "The Trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised." The Prophet Hosea was com- manded to "blow the cornet in Gibeah and the trumpet in Ramah;" and Joel was ordered to "blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm." The cornet and trumpet seem to be identical, as in the Septuagint both places are expressed by σαλπισατε σαλπιγγι.

  • Method 'Splicing'
    THE CENTRAL COUNCIL OF CHURCH BELL RINGERS Methods Committee Method ‘Splicing’ PRACTICAL HINTS by John P. Fidler A Central Council publication CENTRAL COUNCIL OF CHURCH BELL RINGERS ––––––––––––––––– Methods Committee Method ‘Splicing’ PRACTICAL HINTS by John P. Fidler WITH INTRODUCTION ‘The Theory and Practice of Splicing’ by Joseph W. Parker ––––––––––––––––– SECOND EDITION ––––––––––––––––– 1995 ISBN No. 0-900271-35-3 EDITORIAL NOTES This book was first published in 1925 and comprised a series of articles entitled Hints on splicing and ringing Minor Methods by John P. Fidler, which were reprinted from The Ringing World, together with an introduction by Joseph W. Parker. In preparing the text for this edition some changes to the original text have been considered desirable. The earlier work relied on the availability of the Central Council Collection of Legitimate Methods, 1907 and referred by number to methods which appeared in that publication. These references have been replaced by the actual names of the methods and all the method names have been brought up- to-date. Furthermore, whole leads of the thirty-five methods rung at Norbury have been included. In this edition we have followed the modern conventions that the first blow of the treble’s full lead is called the lead end, the last blow of the treble’s full lead is called the lead head and that the name of the method is shown next to the lead head. In the first edition inconsistent and possibly confusing notations were used. Third’s place Delight and Fourth’s place Delight are no longer considered to be separate classes and so this distinction has been removed.

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.

I especially thank James Steckel, Barbara Zbikowski, Gustavo Betancourt, and Joshua Ellis, colleagues and computer experts extraordinaire, for their invaluable assistance. Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy.

  • Digital Synthesis of Sound Generated by Tibetan Bowls and Bells
    ARCHIVES OF ACOUSTICS Copyright c 2016 by PAN – IPPT Vol. 41, No. 1, pp. 139–150 (2016) DOI: 10.1515/aoa-2016-0014 Digital Synthesis of Sound Generated by Tibetan Bowls and Bells Andrzej GOŁAŚ, Roman FILIPEK Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics AGH University of Science and Technology Al. A. Mickiewicza 30, 30-059 Kraków, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] (received October 24, 2011; accepted April 2, 2012) The aim of this paper is to present methods of digitally synthesising the sound generated by vibroa- coustic systems with distributed parameters. A general algorithm was developed to synthesise the sounds of selected musical instruments with an axisymmetrical shape and impact excitation, i.e., Tibetan bowls and bells. A coupled mechanical-acoustic field described by partial differential equations was discretized by using the Finite Element Method (FEM) implemented in the ANSYS package. The presented synthe- sis method is original due to the fact that the determination of the system response in the time domain to the pulse (impact) excitation is based on the numerical calculation of the convolution of the forcing function and impulse response of the system. This was calculated as an inverse Fourier transform of the system’s spectral transfer function. The synthesiser allows for obtaining a sound signal with the assumed, expected parameters by tuning the resonance frequencies which exist in the spectrum of the generated sound. This is accomplished, basing on the Design of Experiment (DOE) theory, by creating a meta-model which contains information on its response surfaces regarding the influence of the design parameters.

Leninova No . 24 1000 – Skopje MACEDONIA Tel / fax : +389 2 32 23 101 Балканска Асоцијација за Алтернативен Туризам Балканија Text Fabio Cotifava, Emilia Kalaydjieva, Beatrice Cotifava Design Kalya Mondo srl, Alessandro Cotifava Photos GoBalkans ltd, Kalya Mondo srl Translation Chris Brewerton - Mantova (Italy) www.cbtraduzioni.it Printing Litocolor snc di Montanari e Rossetti - Guastalla di Reggio Emilia (Italy) Copyright GoBalkans ltd- December 2012 Privately printed edition BALKANIA is an Association of Balkan Alternative tourism which consists of eight member countries from the Balkans and Italy. Its activities include the execution of projects in order to promote the entire Balkan region as a tourist destination. In addition, its purpose is to restore the positive image of the Balkans in the public eye and promote their exceptional natural, histo- rical, cultural and anthropological heritage. The name of the Association, BALKANIA, sounds like a name of a new imaginary land on the territories represented by the hospitality of their population. One of the objectives of the project is to create a virtual geographic region that includes the territories and regions which are today identified with the term BALKANS. The efforts of the Association are aimed at channeling its energy to all forms that are alterna- tive to mass tourism, and which are in terms of the development of macro sectors identified as natural tourism, rural tourism and cultural tourism. BALKANIA is established on 24 .03.2009 in Skopje, in agreement with the Macedonian laws. It is formed by a group of partners from Macedonia, Bulgaria and Italy, with members from Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro , Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina ,Greece , Kosovo and Ma- cedonia .
