The brass band participates in national and cultural musical events, such as the Mongolian State Flag Day Parade on Sükhbaatar Square, to which it plays an important role. Graduates of the college take part in festivals of brass bands, which are commonly held in South Korea, Germany, Great Britain and Russia. The whole college acts as a military unit the size of a battalion and is included in during joint performances of other Mongolian military bands.

Overview
It began as a fine arts course when it began on October 1991. When it started, many Mongolian and foreign musicians were brought in to help manage the college. In 1992, one year after the establishment of the course, it was converted into a Music Department and later was given its current name, with its structure being expanded as a result. Since 1991, the college has taken part in the Mongolian State Flag Day military parade on Sükhbaatar Square as part of the corps of drums and the massed bands. All cadets at the college graduate with a bachelor's degree in musical arts, which can aide students who chose to specialize as conductors of unit bands.
