I don't imagine they are readily affordable

Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells albums are great, along with his various other works.

Thanks so much for the quick replies that really help.
I will see if my friend go buying one.

There are some instructions on how to build your own tubular bells, would be an interesting project if you had the equipment available.

In the classical percussion world, these are called "chimes". I have an old Ludwig set. They are great fun and nothing else sounds the same. The hardest part is transporting them.
