The "Prayer and Professor Bell", a c' bell cast in they year 1440 which is audible beyond the city limits, is to be joined by six more bells at pitches e flat', a flat', b flat', c", e flat", and f". These pitches form the thematic core of the works performed on this recording. Ringing of the "Professorenglocke" "Prayer and Professor Bell", cast 1440 Henri J.
