In booklet: The music on this album was recorded with two Neumann M49 microphones mounted on an A/B bar at approx. 13ft altitude and about 10ft behind the conductor's stand. [...] The concert was recorded onto a Tascam DA 88 digital 8-track machine. No equalisation was used in the process. In the final mixes of these recordings, very little us was made of the section microphones that we had put up to create a proper balance. The result is a pleasant, compact sound with a tremendous low-end at heavy percussion peaks.
Recorded live on Friday, October 17, 1997, at Muziekcentrum Vredenburg, Utrecht. Mixed and edited at Vintage 71 Studios, Wees, Holland on March 4, 5, 6, & April 3, 1998 except track #4 (Old Creole Days) recorded and mixed on October 17, 1997 for NPS radio broadcast.
