Veterans Day Carillon Recital

The Veterans Day noontime carillon concert at Burton Memorial Tower will include a medley of The Caissons Go Rolling Along, The Marine’s Hymn, and Anchors Aweigh, plus arrangements of Semper Fidelis and Eternal Father, Strong to Save, performed by Associate Professor Tiffany Ng, U-M Carillon Guild president Meghan Wysocki, and members of the Guild.

Thirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8), and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/
