‘Friends of the Royal Band of the Guides’

Since its creation in 1832 as the Musique Particulière du Roi, the identity of the Musique Royale des Guides has rested on the following foundations: its structure of complete wind orchestra backed by a unique corps of buglers, its classical repertoire originating from a unique heritage of works composed or arranged specifically for it, the talents of its musicians, and, last but not least, a succession of prestigious conductors.
