A '''carillon''' is a [[musical instrument]] composed of at least 23 cup-shaped [[bell]]s played from a baton [[keyboard]] using fists and feet (such an instrument with fewer than this number of bells is known as a chime). Carillon bells are made of bell [[bronze]], approximately 78% [[copper]] and 22% [[tin]]. Carillons are normally housed in [[bell tower]]s. The carillon has the widest [[dynamic range]] of any mechanical (non-electric) musical instrument.
