2007 Summer Schedule -
Carillon Recitals in North America

Many North American carillons present a variety of special summer recitals (concerts) in addition to whatever year-round playing may be scheduled. Usually (but not always) these summer recitals are organized into a regular series and/or involve guests from other places. This page lists all such series and special events in geographical order, identifying the date, time and recitalist(s) for each event.

Newly added this year: The name of each carillon or institution also serves as a link to the site data page which presents more information about the instrument, especially its routine playing schedule, details of its location and a further link to a locator map. Therefore, carillons which reported summer series in prior years are included even when no such series has been reported for the current year; the site data page might reflect a reason for that absence.

Corrections and additions from series organizers and recitalists
should be sent to Dave Johnson.
