History

The Concert Band

The band was founded in 1848 (175 years ago) (1848) by Jean-Georges Paulus. Its official debut dates back to 1852, when a concert was organized in honor of Jean Paulus, its founder and the first leader of the band.[2]

The band made its first international performance in 1871, when it traveled to the United States. Since then, the musicians of the band have made numerous tours all over the world.[citation needed]

In 1993, the band was given its current name and was transferred to the Republican Guard.[3][4] Since March 1, 1997, the band has been under the command of Colonel François Boulanger, with Lieutenant-Colonel Sébastien Billiard as his deputy.[5]
