Carillons and Carillon Music in Old Gdańsk: Eastern European Studies in Musicology

Autor Danuta Popinigis Traducere de Wojciech Bonkowski
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iul 2019
The history of Gdäsk carillons begins in 1561. It was that year that fourteen automatic bells were installed in the Main Town Hall. Later, a "striking mechanism" appeared in St Catherine¿s Church. This magnificent instrument, consisting of thirty-five bells, has been in use since 1738. The third carillon was built in 1939 in the youth hostel at Biskupia Górka. The play of Gdäsk carillons was interrupted by the Second World War. The book discusses the history and music of Gdäsk carillons. It contains valuable information on bells, carillon mechanisms, bell founders, carillonists, and bell setters, inviting the reader to study the Protestant repertoire, the unique notation of preserved manuscripts, and the remarkable soundscape of Gdäsk, which for centuries has been marked by the sound of carillons.
