Description
On Sunday afternoons, you may hear one of the park's associate carillonneur volunteers practicing in the Netherlands Carillon! Depending on volunteer availability, musicians practice on the instrument on some Sundays anywhere in the 1:00-4:00 timeframe. This is not a performance; you may hear musicians working on the same section of a song over and over or you may hear them repeat pieces throughout their practice session.
For safety reasons, the public is not allowed to ascend the Carillon tower. All listening must be enjoyed from ground level.
Outside of practice hours, there are two kinds of Netherlands Carillon Concerts: very short, automated mini-concerts each day and longer performances by live musicians every summer or fall.
