I am very pleased to have a further opportunity of speaking to you on the subject of chimes, and of completing the part of the subject I was unable to deal with in my last paper given before this Association about two years ago. On that occasion I was only able to treat of chimes and chime tunes of our own country. To-night I propose to deal with Continental Chimes as fully as possible, both as to the music played, and as to the mechanism which is employed to produce it, comparing them with such as exist in England. As far as possible, I shall endeavour to make this paper complete in itself, although there will be, of necessity, references which will presuppose a knowledge of some things I have already fully set forth here on previous occasions. To give an accurate knowledge of the finest Continental Chimes, I have decided to take in detail one of the best known, and for this purpose I have chosen M alines, of which I shall give the fullest particulars. I have been fortunate enough to obtain them through the courtesy of the officials, and of M. Jos Denyn, the famous carillonneur, in particular, as well as by my own personal observation on the many occasions I have visited the city. A comparison with our own chime mechanism and chime music will accentuate the differences which exist, and this comparison I shall frequently draw in the course of my remarks.
