Bundeswehr, National Police and Police Forces

The music corps of the Bundeswehr, the national police and the police forces are regular ensembles that perform various functions within their respective organisations. The music corps of the Bundeswehr are mainly made up of professional musicians and topped up with qualified brass-playing conscripts. In addition to the symphonic brass orchestras, smaller groups are regularly formed such as big bands, combos, smaller brass bands or chamber ensembles. The range of any music corps spans from ceremonial functions, concertante performances, shows and modern entertainment music. The orchestras of the National Police Force come under the auspices of the Police Presidents in the East, Central and Southern districts. They perform at official functions and as part of the National Police Force public relations programme at formal concerts and charity events. The music corps of the other police forces are mainly part of their public relations programme and are run by the various federal states and are generally part of the organisational set up of the Interior Ministries in the federal states.
