    Wonderful! Thanks for posting. Was the microphone also in the belfry?

      Yes - what you're listening to is a pair of microphones in the belfry, one above the bells to pick up the direct sound and one positioned to pick up more of the ambient/reflected sound.

    This sounds like the Birmingham band.
    I often listen to this with my eyes closed, it is great mindfulness music, i simply at present inthe moment.
    When I ring the same is true, so focussed on where you a are in the method and listening ut somehow laying down and shutting myeyes an d listening is better.
    I think I could go into the ringing room at Yorkminster and simply listen to a whole peal of Surprise Max or Stedman cinques and just be present in a heavenly realm for around four hours.

      @@JustAnKangaLover if you’re talking about the bell in the middle that’s in the down position, that’s the 6 flat bell. It allows a true octave to be rung on the middle bells instead of hauling a heavy back 8 around. The middle 8 uses bells 2-9 and uses the 6b as the 5th bell. Some towers will also have an extra treble bell to allow the middle 8 to be augmented to 10 using the extra treble as the treble and the treble as the 2nd
