Recitals Recitals are FREE!

The University of Sydney Carillon is located in the clock tower of the Main Quadrangle of the main campus. There are free Carillon recitals every Sunday afternoon (usually at 2pm). The best place to listen is in the southwest part of the quadrangle. (For a sample of what you can hear, you can download some audio snippets).

Combining the enjoyment of the bells with a picnic on the lawn can be great fun in fine weather. We only request that you remain silent while recitals are in progress.

The bells may be inspected after the recitals. Access to the clavier room is through the door on the eastern edge of the inside of the quandrangle, about 30m to the north of the clock tower. Follow several stairways as far as you can!

The Carillon is also played on Tuesdays at lunchtime (1 pm - 2 pm) during University term. Visitors are allowed into the clavier room during these lunchtime recitals. Arrangements can be made for the Carillon to be played for weddings and other occasions. Contact: Jill Forrest (9487 2386). Inspection of the Carillon is also included in Guided Tours of the University.
