      Change Ringing    
 

When you think of church bells, you may imagine those that play a familiar song or hymn. But since the 17th century, another form of bell ringing has played an important role in Anglican worship. Called change-ringing bells, the music they make may not be familiar melodies, but if you listen carefully, the music they make is rhythmic and complex.
