Abstract
William Wooding Starmer (1866-1927) was an English campanologist and carillon advisor of international renown. During his time, he was considered a leading figure in the carillon community for his expertise and influence, as demonstrated by his frequent correspondence and close ties with the likes of Jef Denyn and William Gorham Rice. He was active during a period of great change within the carillon art and its associated community. These include improvements in bell production techniques, instrument ranges and technical innovation, education, and composition. Starmer was active in all of these areas: they represent the vision he had of the potential of the carillon as a modern instrument and the contributions he made to the development of the carillon art as it would come to be recognised by the end of the twentieth century.
