Meet at the Metz (carillon concert)

  • Unity of Bloomington 4001 S. Rogers Street Bloomington, IN 47403 (map)

Hear the song “What a Wonderful World” in a completely new and different way. This is only one of the songs that will be featured in the carillon concert at the I.U. Arboretum at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 16. The musical program has an overarching “summer” theme, so there will be a few stormy pieces to represent an afternoon thunderstorm, and more mellow ones to convey a lazy summer day. In addition, there will be some works either from Spain or in a Spanish style. The agenda also includes some original carillon compositions, showcasing the bell-like tones. After the concert, tours of the instrument and its tower are available, with a basic history of carillons in general, I.U.'s Metz Carillon in particular, and a short demonstration of how the instrument is played. Free parking is available in several near-by lots. Bring a chair and/or a blanket and Meet at the Metz for a quiet Sunday afternoon with UOB friends.
