  "Frozen Brass was a research project of Rob Boonzajer Flaes at the Center for Visual Anthropology of the University of Amsterdam. Up to now a surprisingly large number of popular brass bands were found in countries like Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Surinam, Mexico, Samoa, Fiji, Philippines, Indonesia, India, Nepal, Ghana, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Malawi, Kenya, and Tanzania. In many cases PAN Records' co-operators were the first researchers ever to document this kind of music, thus gathering a unique body of research data and visual material. This CD contains brass bands from Nepal, India, Sumatra, Central Java, West Java, Moluccas (unique historical recordings), Minahassa, Philippines." (Pan Records Catalogue)
