Summary/Abstract: Symphony orchestra of blowers, Representative Music of the Ministry of National Defense is today the performance standard in terms of wind bands in our country. Through its activity carried out during seven decades, the band crowned the creative, interpretative, educational, and cultural values of the military music bands from the Romanian garrisons and military units. Having a repertoire that exceeds two thousand works from almost all musical genres (hymns, marches, patriotic and military songs, fantasies, potpourri, overtures, processing of songs and folk games, symphonic poems, symphonies, jazz, Romanian light music, etc.) from the creations of Romanian and universal composers, the wind symphony orchestra supported a rich concert, ceremonial and protocol activity, representing Romania in numerous national and international festivals.
