Castle Bartizan—Sarah Siegler. Travel back in
time to the Middle Ages with this intensely energetic
work. A bartizan is a turret of a castle, built along
the defensive wall as a lookout for the castle guard.

and the importance of the guard standing at the
ready in the castle bartizan. The lyrical contrasting
sections depict the beauty and timelessness of
medieval castles. The percussion, utilizing low
tom-tom and tambourine combined with modal
harmonies, gives the piece a medieval flair that will
keep your students engaged and excited about the
power of making music together.
