Music from the Hazleton Liberty Band Books as performed by the Fort Delaware Cornet Band. "Duquesne Greys"


​The Fort Delaware Cornet Band is the premier Civil War Brass Band in the Delaware Valley, which represents an impression of the original Artillery Brass Band that was in residence at Fort Delaware during the Civil War. The band performs on original and replica Civil War Era instruments and performs music of the Civil War Era. The band performs regularly at balls, concerts and educational events throughout NJ, DE, MD and PA.
​The band is made up of music educators and musicians with both an extensive history in the Civil War reenacting community as well as in musical excellence. The majority of the members are also direct descendants of Union veterans and are proud to bring their ancestors' legacy to life.
