This special July 4th event features an open tower with no formal program and visitors are welcome to observe from the playing chamber and can view the bells as time allows.
Performers for this concert are Lee Leach, Christina Meyer, Norwood Massachusetts, and Margaret Angelini, Wellesley College, Massachusetts
All concerts are rain or shine. Best listening spots are on the Town Common or in the upper parking lot behind the Town Hall off of Central Street. Tours of the bell tower are available after most concerts.
Norwood's Fifty-Bell Memorial Carillon was cast by Gillett & Johnston, Bellfounders, Croydon, England and, together with the Norwood Memorial Building and Tower, was dedicated on Armistice Day, November 11, 1928. The instrument was a gift to his fellow townspeople from the late Walter F. Tilton, a prominent local banker and civic leader.
The Carillon Concert Series is sponsored by the Town of Norwood and by the Norwood Women's Community Committee, and by private donations to the Town’s Carillon Fund. This program is funded in part by a grant from the Norwood Cultural Council, a local agency, which is supported by Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, and the Town of Norwood
