The '''Military Music Wing''' of the [[Army Education Corps (India)|Army Education Corps]] is an educational institution that supports the [[Indian Army]] and all [[military band]]s and musicians in its ranks. Being part of the AEC, its facilities are located in [[Pachmarhi]], [[Madhya Pradesh]] state. After gaining independence in 1947, there became a need to establish an Indian institution of military music to give a new direction and dimension to the music of the Indian Armed Forces. There were thoughts of creating as school of music that was based on the [[Royal Military School of Music]] in the British [[Royal Corps of Army Music]]. The inspiration for this action came from the then Advisor of Military Music at the Army Headquarters in [[New Delhi]]. This project came into fruition on 23 October 1950 under the patronage and supervision of [[K. M. Cariappa]], the-then [[Firsts in India|first]] Indian [[Chief of the Army Staff (India)|C-in-C]] of the Army.<ref>https://m.timesofindia.com/entertainment/bengali/music/get-set-to-enjoy-great-military-music-today/amp_articleshow/72529472.cms</ref> | The '''Military Music Wing''' of the [[Army Education Corps (India)|Army Education Corps]] is an educational institution that supports the [[Indian Army]] and all [[military band]]s and musicians in its ranks.
