Last time's tune was Tinnias tintinnabulum mea, which is the pre-Disco era (i.e. ancient Roman) way of saying Ring My Bell, the tune by Anita Ward.

My MySpace friends Amy and Brandon got it right (within a few minutes of each other).  Also, Joseph got it right.  Who's Joseph?  He's the director of the handbell choirs at Christ Church Cranbrook, where the rehearsal was where everyone but me knew this tune.  He has a Doctor of Fine Arts in bell ringing or something.  Here's a video of him playing the carillon:

As always, feel free to contact me with corrections to my Latin or chant notation.  Extra credit if you can tell me the episode that came to mind while talking about geography!
