What we do
Our primary role is to supply first class music for any military event, State event or for any event that requires musical support and raises the profile of the Army and associated charities throughout the world.
From State events around London to parades for our troops, concerts or Rock and Pop Bands, the Corps of Army Music Bands can be seen at events around the world.
The Corps also has an operational capability, and at present this is in support of the Army Medical Services.
This includes chemical decontamination of casualties for the field hospitals and general duties.
General duties can include:
- Guarding key installations
- Driving
- Close protection
- Equipment care
- Guarding prisoners of war
- or any number of roles and activities as required
The Bands are tasked to supply musical support to the troops in Operational areas and the Corps has a number of musicians currently on individual deployment to Op Herrick - Afghanistan.
