The Military Band of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Mongolia (also known as the Band of the Armed Forces of Mongolia or the MAF Band) is the main military band of the Armed Forces of Mongolia. The band was formed in 1950 and began as the foremost musical group of the Mongolian People's Army.[1] It was led for over 30 years by Colonel Navaany Tserenpil who drastically changed the band's style and structure to reflect the Russian model.[2] Tserenpil, who wrote over 100 marches for the band, is known as the Mongolian March King.[3] Today, the MAF Band participates in receptions dedicated to state holidays, parades, and accompanies the visits of heads of state and government to Mongolia.[4] [5] [6]

Founding director

Colonel Navaany Tserenpil was a Mongolian musician and military leader who was the longtime head of the Music Department of the Mongolian People's Army. Being a conductor and composer, Colonel Tserenpil was an Honored Worker of Mongolia, and was one of the most famous musical figures of the 20th century in Mongolia. He was born on October 15, 1915, in Khoroo in the Selenge Province, spending his early childhood in poverty, becoming a sawyer age of 14. He enlisted in the army in 1936 and became a soldier in a Special Committee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He later joined the music service, and after a couple of year was promoted to head of the music department. Tserenpil was awarded the rank of lieutenant on May 1, 1940. He was the music director until 1945. He was awarded the title of "Honored Artist of the People's Republic of Mongolia" by the Presidium of the Great People's Khural in 1961 on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the People's Army. Colonel Tserenpil died on August 2, 1978, after nearly 40 years of service.
