Thus\, the live performance does not require an actual pipe organ. Interpretations of the album material will be reproduced on digital instruments that precisely replicate the sound of the various organs and churches heard on the album\, accompanied by saxophone\, photo\, and live sound design and processing.

It was an intimate\, two-day affair among friends\, comprising a jam session on a West Dawson farm and a dance at Diamond Tooth Gertie’s. Quickly realizing that the Festival was too good a secret to keep\, an enterprising band of local volunteers incorporated the Dawson City Music Festival Association in 1980\, and received charitable status in 1986. \nSince then\, the event Vancouver’s Georgia Straight dubbed as “Canada’s tiny\, perfect Festival” has developed a reputation as one of the nation’s premiere musical events\, but its strengths have remained the same: unparalleled intimacy\, grassroots spirit\, fabulous Klondike hospitality\, and the best concerts North of 60! \nCome join us in celebrating DCMF under the Midnight Sun!
