The chimes of big ben first appeared on bbc radio at the very end of 1923 to announce the new year. In december 1948 this recording (catalogue number 825677) marked the 25th anniversary of big ben’s broadcasting career. Because the recording was made inside the tower there’s plenty of intriguing mechanical detail in addition to the tolling of the quarter bells and the 13-ton great bell. Big ben is the unofficial name for the great bell. Other london bell names include great paul and great tom in st pauls cathedral, and the inscribed names on the bells of st mary-le-bow in cheapside: katherine, fabian, christopher, margaret, mildred, faith, augustine, john, timothy, pancras, cuthbert and bow.

The sound of st mary le bow (london), a. K. A. The bow bells, ringing stedman cinques, as a practice. The zoom h4npro was placed above the bells, in the base of the spire, on a thin wooden trapdoor. Fairly lenghty recording (13 mins), but gives plenty of time to select from. Take a small section from the start for the traditional "rounds" where the bells sound in descending order (in terms of pitch), or select from the bulk of the recording to get some traditional english style change ringing. These bells are known as the bells white called dick whittington (mayor of london) back when he tried to flee, and also as the 'great bells of bow' in nursery rhyme 'oranges and lemons'. Use away! this seems to be (imo - that of a proper bellringer) the best recording of bells on here, so please do use it!!.

Latina: O gloriosa Domina excelsa supra sidera qui te creavit provide lactasti sacrato ubere. Quod Eva tristis abstulit, tu reddis almo germine, intrent ut astra flebiles, sternis benigna semitam. Tu regis alti ianua et aula lucis fulgida, vitam datam per Virginem, gentes redemptae, plaudite. Patri sit et Paraclito tuoque Nato gloria, qui veste te mirabili circumdederunt gratiae. Du große Herrin, schönste Frau, Gotteslob (2013) 648Reimübertragung (R.F.): O Herrin in der Herrlichkeit, erhoben über Raum und Zeit, der dich zum Heil erschaffen hat, er wurd’ an deinen Brüsten satt. Die Sünde, die durch Eva kam, du trugst ihn, der sie von uns nahm. So bahnst du uns durchs Endgericht den Weg zum Himmel und zum Licht. Du bist die Tür, da Einzug hält der Friedenskönig in die Welt. Vom Leben, das die Jungfrau bringt, erlöste Völker, sagt und singt! Ruhm sei dem Vater und dem Geist und Gott dem Sohn, der dein Sohn heißt. Dem einen Gott, der dich erhob und krönte, ihm sei ewig Lob.

Favorite airs from The Mikado (music by Gilbert and Sullivan, 1885) was a 1914 production by Edison Records, performed by the Edison Light Opera Company. This was one of several phonograph cylinders put out by Edison Records (and, no doubt, others) that attempted to encapsulate an entire opera or musical in about four minutes generally, they consisted of a bit of the opening chorus, a verse or two from one or two of the songs, then a bit of the Act II finale. This one is not atypical. The cast is not given, but in the 1913 recording of Pinafore, also by the Edison Light Opera Company, the following singers were featured: Elizabeth Spencer, Mary Jordan, Harry Anthony, Walter Van Brunt, James F. Harrison, and William F. Hooley The only copy of the recording I had to work from was not particularly high quality, and, though I think I managed to clean it up fairly well, I had to leave some of the background noise in, or the singers start to sound unnatural since cleanup of static does, by necessity, remove some information as well. By removing clicks and pops, then blending a noise-reduced track with the one just cleaned of the clicks and pops, good results can be achieved. Notes This was Edison Blue Amberol #2179, which was a reissue of Edison 4-minute Amberol #465. Songs All songs are heavily abridged: Overture (first few seconds) A wand'ring minstrel I Three little maids from school are we Tit-willow (On a tree by a river) Act II Finale: "For he's gone and married Yum-Yum" and "The threatened cloud has passed away" The full text of The Mikado is available on English Wikisource: s:The Mikado.
