2022 Guild of Carillonneurs outside of the Campanile

Carillonneurs

The UNI Guild of Carillonneurs is a student group committed to preserving and enhancing the tradition of carillon music on UNI's campus. This student-led group is responsible for playing the carillon instrument housed in the UNI Campanile, as well as facilitating tours of the historic 1926 structure and promoting carillon music to the campus and Cedar Valley communities. The group is limited to ten members by audition, but students from any major are welcome to audition. Activities include monthly seminar meetings, annual Campaniling concerts, Friday lunchtime concerts, special concerts and activities throughout the year and hosting the semi-annual Midwest International Carillon Festival.

The UNI Guild of Carillonneurs is currently advised by Dr. Erik Rohde.
