Carillon Concerts on the Common

Milford Myhre, Bok Tower Gardens, Lake Wales, Florida.

All concerts are rain or shine. Best listening spots are on the Town Common or the far parking lot behind the Town Hall off Central Street. Tours of the bell-tower are available after most concerts.

Norwood's Fifty-Bell Memorial Carillon was cast by Gillett and Johnston, Bellfounders, Croyden, England and installed in Memorial Tower in 1928. The instrument was a gift to his fellow townspeople from the late Walter F. Tilton, a prominent local banker and civic leader.
