The recording took place on the 1st floor level of Fort Point in a 20'x20' brick cannon casemate in September 2010. Original 150+ year old 19thcentury brass wind instruments were used for this recording to reproduce the authenticity of sound that would have been heard in the 1850's - 1870's at this fort (Gold Rush & Civil War era).
Fort Point Garrison Brass Band is a Northern California based reenactment band that plays mid-19th century music on original period instruments. Our primary goal is to present the public with an authentic and historically correct band reenactment.
