The Invention A fully mobile
unit of nine bronze cathedral bells protected by Australian
Patents numbered 202100205/2006200469 .
The Construction
The bells are sourced from
one of the worlds leading European foundries and shipped
to the Gold Coast headquarters. The unit is then meticulously
constructed by hand picked tradesmen to ensure a quality
end product.
For the Technical People
The nine bells are
cast from eminent bell bronze. The highest possible care
is paid to the tuning of the bells, such that each bell,
not only in its own tone- structure but also in combination
with other bells, will have an agreeable purity and timbre.
The striking of the bells is performed by nine electromagnetic
clappers which are controlled by a fully programmable carillon
computer.
