University of Toronto | Carillon Recital

Carillonist: Gordon Slater, Dominion Carillonneur (retired) of Ottawa
Registration is encouraged but not mandatory.

Recitals are free and open to the public. Although the carillon can be heard clearly at a distance, the best places to listen are Hart House Circle lawn, the back campus, and the Hart House and University College quadrangles.

The carillon plays during June and November convocations, informally for short unscheduled intervals each week, and for formal, one-hour recitals. Visit our Facebook site for a schedule of informal playing times.

During formal recitals, seating is arranged at the base of Soldiers’ Tower at 7 Hart House Circle, where a television monitor captures the carillonneur’s performance.
