The Cornell Chimes and Chimesmasters are often the subject of documentaries and news stories. The chimesmasters are also associate members of the Guild of Carillonneurs in North America, and actively participate in annual congresses and outreach to other bell instruments. The information and resources on this page, including the chimes newsletter, are intended to give you greater knowledge about both the program and bells beyond Cornell.
