Episode notes
Episode 12 is a great conversation with David Ohanian (French horn) and Norman Bolter (trombone), both former members of the Empire Brass Quintet. We talk about their two albums of 19th century brass band music - The American Brass Band Journal, and The American Brass Band Journal Revisited - the recording and origins of these albums. Both Norman and David offer their thoughts on a range of other topics, including brass playing today, and performing on period instruments vs. modern instruments.
Music in this episode comes from Our Musical Past from the Library of Congress, and The 8th GM Regiment Band.
