Unlike most popular brass ensembles in the United States our British Brass Band is a unique ensemble, with a very specific instrumentation, utilizing cornets, not trumpets and alto horns not French horns. The rich, dark, and mellow tone quality you hear stems from the fact that all the instruments, except the trombones, are conical bore in design, therefore permitting the brass band to produce a most unique and different sound.
Originating in Britain, it is naturally quite popular in the commonwealth countries and has become very popular throughout Europe and the rest of the world. For many years the movement was kept alive in the United States largely by the Salvation Army’s influence.

The Salvation Army Museum Basel is a private museum about the Salvation Army. It was opened in 1993 and originated from the private collection of Caroline Faessler-Burkhardt.
Originally, only one room was allocated for the display but in the meantime it has grown in such a way that it is impossible to show everything in just one room.
