British Army Sandhurst is one of 14 regular Army bands in the Royal Corps of Army Music. Formed in 2019, the band is the first to be permanently based at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst since the disbandment of the Royal Military Academy Band in 1984. As one of the public faces of the Army, the band supports a diverse range of national and defence interests both at home and around the world. As well as a Symphonic Wind Band, British Army Band Sandhurst provides smaller ensemble capabilities such as brass quintet, woodwind quintet, saxophone quartet, fanfare team, brass dectet, jazz orchestra and a function band.
