At the risk of sounding judgmental some less liturgical churches confuse 
and/or combine Advent and Christmas.  I should know... I grew up a Methodist 
and during the entire month of December we had Christmas carols interspersed 
with a few Advent hymns.  I'm no longer a member of that denomination.

However, I will say that this whole strain has gone off the topic of Rodgers 
organs and I wish to bring it back on topic.  So here it goes....  I've asked 
it before and haven't received a response:  How can one create the "change 
ringing/bell peal" sound on a PR300 and have it sound real?  Are there any 
programs or disks  or such a beast?  If so I would buy one immediately so 
that I could have the bells do their thing while I'm playing my postlude on 
Christmas Eve.  Furthermore, I've been to some of the Change ringing sites 
and using their "calls" I've not been able to recreate, or even come close, 
to the sound/style I'm looking for.  Does anyone have a clue or an idea?

Thanks and Peace,
