Brief History
In August 1992, shortly after the creation of the Moldovan Border Troops (now the Border Police), a military band made up of 10 musicians led by conductor Simon Arnaut was created. Initially, the band included only 3 professional musicians, with the rest composing of conscript soldiers. The band was reorganized in 1996 to include a professional staff who are graduates of the College of Folk Creation in Socora. The band increased its number of musicians to 20 the following year, and eventually was divided to include a Fanfare Orchestra and folk music band in 2010.
