Name the note

Every bell begins as a single decision: what should it sing? Choose a strike note below. The rules our tuners work by — frequency times diameter is a constant of the trade; weight follows the fourth power of the mouth — will give you the bell your note implies. Then strike it, and hear what you are asking us to found.

Strike notes · G3 – C6 Press to choose & hear

Great bells · 3rd octave

Tenors & tolling bells · 4th octave

Trebles & chapel bells · 5th octave

The small end · 6th octave

Any pitch between these can be cast — the mould does not care for key signatures. Name it in your enquiry.

The work

What should this bell say, and for whom?

A line or two is enough — who it is for, and where it will hang.
