Sonic Journal EP29: Queen Elizabeth Muffled Bells [St Matthias Church, Malvern]

It is only on the rare occasion that church bells are chimed with mufflers on. Bells are half-muffled for Remembrance Sunday, but it seems only fully muffled when a king or queen dies. This recording was made on September 11th 2022. Muffled bells were heard around the country for ten days from September 9th to 19th 2022, sounding out a more solemn tone as a mark of respect.
