    When you make a mistake on piano, only you and your teacher have to know. Make a mistake on the bells and the whole freaking town knows it.

    Mayor: Inspector, have you gotten any leads regarding those awful, brutal deaths?
    Inspector: One thing we *have* determined that they weren'tripped apart by wild animals...they were murdered.
    Mayor: Murdered?!? But this is a remote, bucolic town! There have been no strangers passing through. Everybody knows everybody else! We're all friends, family, and neighbors! Who could have done thes?!?
    Inspector: Then apparently this town has somehow spawned one amongst you who isn’t very friendly, familial, or neighborly. My job is to find out who they are, and part of that involve my determining how such a perfect town made them this way...
    (Cue this song playing as background to a montage of once-happy townsfolk, now absently going about their business with looks of concern and suspicion as each one reflects upon their possible part in creating the monster amongst them.)

    I found your video on my youtube home page and was quite surprised to hear Mixolydian Mixup mentioned. I haven't thought about that piece since I tried playing it in middle school when I was first learning to play trumpet. I had just learned what musescore is and found a copy of the piece there. Your work sounds great! I hope you have a great day!

    I was in the main square of Bruges 25 years ago, and I'm sure I heard Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks being played.

    • @matswessling6600

      "seasons in the sun" is actually written by Jacques Brel. He was from Bryssels so that might explain it being played in Brugge.

    This is sick. We dont have a bell tower (that they let the music students play) but i think this piece is DYING to be played on a B3. I may have to put a group together to make a properly funk recording of this piece when the semester starts.

    Works. You're right. Modal stuff does, although some of the chromaticisms get funky in the pedal. But, all of that Mechelen romantic stuff was written for and played on the old St. Rombouts carillon, which was way more funky sounding on those bells.

    The beginning of the piece sounds much like orthodox bell ringing. It also brought to my ind some very distant memory of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells. So, that is what went to listen to next. I noticed that I had really mostly forgotten what is in Tubular Bells, but yes there are bells.😃

    Awsome! As a Dutchman living in Portugal, you are almost making me homesick.
    Meanwhile, I also wonder how this comes across at a certain distance, on the ground, with a good bit of wind... 🤔 I lived within hearing range but not quite next door to the Grote Kerk in Den Haag. Some times the bells would sound like a cross between Schoenberg and John Cage, just due to the weather/distance.

  • @an_asp
    @an_asp Месяц назад +13

    Wow, that sounds great. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that the instrument sounds at its best with music specifically composed for carillon, but I think this is the most natural-sounding performance on one I've heard.
    Though I am curious: this was presumably recorded from up there in the bell tower, but how well do some of those higher, quieter notes carry when the listener is far away?

    • @joeybrinkbells
      @joeybrinkbells  Месяц назад +10

      Good question! They do carry quite well, given the architectural design of the tower and olacemebtuof bells in the belfry. Actually this recording is a combination of in-tower mics and outside mics :-)

      There's a large variety you can find. I think there are some free ones from Spitfire Labs you can get, and the stuff they release is pretty good. Can't speak on much else though as I often use Roland's packs from their DAW
