A carillon(pronounced

  CAROL-ON)     

is a musical instrument 

that is usually housed in a free-standing bell tower, or the belfry of a church or other municipal building. The instrument consists of at least 23 cast bronze cup-shaped bells, which are played serially to play a melody, or sounded together to play a chord.

    Frederick's "logo" is the "Clustered Spires."  The phrase comes from a famous poem

    by John Greenleaf Whittier about Frederick native Barbara Fritchie, who, at age 95,

    proudly and defiantly flew the Union flag in the face of Confederate General Stonewall

    Jackson, as he marched his troops through Frederick in 1862.  The poem begins:

 

                        "Up from the meadows rich with corn,

                          Clear in the cool September morn,

                          The clustered spires of Frederick stand

                          Green-walled by the hills of Maryland..."
