The tower San Giorgio in Bràida is the place where the Veronese ringing was developed. It started in 1776 and evolved throughout the 19th century until it got its definitive shape in the early 20th century. Meanwhile this way of ringing had spread over the complete city of Verona and the surroundings. Bells are rung full circle, and by stopping the bells in reversed position the bells can be rung exactly at the desired moment, so that real melodies can be played. As far as we know this is the only bell ringing tradition where melodies can be played by swinging bells.
Many thanks to the bell ringers of San Giorgio in Bràida and Matteo Padovani in particular for letting us visit the tower of San Giorgio in Bràida and the tower of the duomo. Dank aan de reiscommissie van het Utrechts Klokkenluiders Gilde voor de organisatie van de reis.
