The Evening Bell Chant

Description

This is a "how to" video for anyone who would like to learn how to do this beatiful (and easy) little chant. You might also be interested in this other video of a class on the same chant:

At about ~19:53 I play a recording of the Evening Bell chant that was done by Kathy Park of the Kwan Um School of Zen. That recording is publicly available on the Kwan Um School of Zen Europe website on their "chanting resources" page here:
