Founded in 1861 the first B.A.M. facility at 176-194 Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights was conceived as the home of the Philharmonic Society of Brooklyn. It housed a large theater seating 2,200, a smaller concert hall, dressing and chorus rooms, and a vast "baronial" kitchen. After the building burned to the ground on November 30, 1903, plans were made to relocate to a new facility in the then fashionable neighborhood of Fort Greene.

Many composers after 1900, however, have continued to write music in a style typical of the romantic period. Although the word "romantic" is now usually used to mean "something related to love", "romantic music" as spoken about by musicologists and academics.
