Mercersburg carillon bells mark Christmas Eve concert
The Mercersburg Academy carillon, played by Bryan Barker, fills Christmas Eve with classic carols echoing across the valley. Barker, one of ten American carillonneurs, has maintained a 35 year tie to the school, with bells from Gillett & Johnson representing a gift from the Swope family in 1998.
