===Movement in North America=== Between 1922 and 1940, bellfounders installed 43 carillons in the United States and Canada. The flood of carillons onto the continent is attributed to Rice's widely popular books and persistent education in the United States. His romanticized depiction of the cultural instrument prompted wealthy donors to purchase carillons for their own civil and religious communities.{{sfn|Barnes|1987|p=21}} Price was appointed to play the carillon at the [[Metropolitan United Church]] in [[Toronto, Ontario]], Canada (before working as Dominion Carillonneur); [[Mary Mesquita Dahlmer]] was appointed to play at [[Our Lady of Good Voyage Church (Gloucester, Massachusetts)|Our Lady of Good Voyage Church]] in [[Gloucester, Massachusetts]], US. Both were the first professional carillonneurs in their respective countries.{{sfn|Slater|2003|pp=15, 45}} In 1936, [[The Guild of Carillonneurs in North America]] was founded at [[Parliament Hill]] in [[Ottawa, Ontario]], Canada. Following the deaths of Denyn in 1941 and Rice in 1945, North American carillonneurs, through their new organization, sought to develop their own authority on education and performance.{{sfn|Rombouts|2014|p=289}} In the 1950s and 1960s, a distinct North American style of carillon music emerged at the [[University of Kansas]]. Led by [[Ronald Barnes (carillonist)|Ronald Barnes]], the university's carillonneur, he encouraged his peers to compose for the carillon and produced many of his own compositions.{{sfn|Rombouts|2014|p=289}}
