1995 GCNA Congress

The 53rd Congress of the Guild of Carillonneurs in North
America was held at Princeton University, June 21-25, 1995. Robin Austin,
Carillonneur of Princeton University, served as host. There were 114 registered
participants representing Australia, Belgium, Canada, England, Ireland, The
Netherlands, and the USA. The Congress served as a commemoration of Professor
Arthur Lynds Bigelow (1910-1967), Princeton's first carillonneur and one of
America's first campanologists. Bigelow hosted GCNA Congresses at Princeton in
1946 and 1966.

Wall sconces taking the form of artillery shells line the
nave of the Protestant Cadet Chapel of the United States Military Academy at
West Point, home of what began as M.P. Möller’s Opus 1201 of 1911.
Now IV/380, it incorporates pipework provided by a list of builders from George
Edgar Gress to Aristide Cavaillé-Coll. The sheer size of this instrument
may very well be its most American characteristic. Since pipework and divisions
are added to this organ, not replaced, the organ is a growing compendium of
trends.
