Vinson Lam & Mitty Ma, carillon

Vinson Lam & Mitty Ma perform on the Charles Baird Carillon, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. Mitty Ma will be performing her arrangements of Chinese bianzhong music.

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). Hearing protection earmuffs are available for visitors. 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.
