Default noise reduction material for window, noise from church bells

Hi,


I desperately need an opinion from someone with a good understanding
of materials or noise reduction in general.


I live close to a church and the church bell makes extreme loud noise.
The noise is really loud, going through my windows. I want to put an
extra layer of window - obviously it should be transparent. Should
this extra layer be real "window glass" or polymeric/plastic "PMMA"?


Which transparent material reduces "church bell" sound waves the most?
I was told these guys make something that can reduce noise:
http://www.altuglas.com


Which frequencies do I need to reduce (freq. of sound from church
bell)?


How about optimal layer thickness of the transparent material?


Hope somebody is clever enough to help me find the best solution...


Have you found this web page ?http://irc.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/pubs/cbd/cbd240_e.html


I didn't find it myself so thank you very much. Very good article...
