Sorry, been watching the proms!
They played the 1812 Overture. There were three bells in the kitchen
sink department of the Halle Orchestra that were chimed in the
finale. They formed a chord, (possibly a pentatonic one?). There
was an inscription on at least one bell, but the bleedin' BBC did not
have a single close-up of them. They had neither canons, nor
Doncaster heads, (pace David!). Actually, they looked quite modern.
Any ideas of their origin?
