Goals:   

We perform concerts frequently throughout the year and especially during major University events like Convocation, Meliora, and Graduation. As a public instrument the carillon is available to all departments for collaborations.  We are open to collaborating with you in your classes, your research, your creative activities, and reaching out to the community.  Past examples include “Waterdance” with Dance Department, holiday sing along, electric violin plus carillon, beatbox plus carillon, Native American flute plus carillon, an overtone audio research study, and a collaboration with Ghandi Institute called  A Peaceful Reminder”.
