Among the many visitors to the campus this summer are professional carillonneurs from Europe and the United States, who will make music on the famous Harkness Tower carillon on Friday nights. The concerts are best heard from the Old Campus, between High and College, Chapel and Elm streets. In case of rain, an indoor listening space will be provided in Phelps Hall on the Old Campus. All concerts begin at 7 p.m.; concert-goers are invited to picnic on the lawn.
Tours of the Harkness Tower and the Yale Memorial Carillon will leave from the base of the tower on High Street at 5:30 p.m. before each concert. For more information, call 432-5309.
