The majority of their repertoire consists of works originally written for wind orchestras, major international works, pieces written by contemporary composers and premieres of Croatian composers’ works. There are also a number of chamber ensembles working within the Orchestra. Along with the Orchestra's first chief conductor Mladen Tarbuk, his successor Tomislav Fačini and permanent visiting conductors Dragan Sremec and Tomislav Uhlik, the Orchestra has also been conducted by many renowned artists: Uroš Lajovic, Miljenko Prohaska, Pavle Dešpalj, Nikša Bareza, Vjekoslav Šutej, Krešimir Šipuš, Walter Hilgers... They are currently led by commander and conductor Miroslav Vukovojac-Dugan. The Orchestra performs regularly in festivals around Croatia, as well as in concerts abroad (Budapest in 1997, Moscow in 1997, Vienna in 2008 and 2010). They have also appeared with a lot of success in international military orchestra festivals (Cologne, Berlin, Albertville, Neuchatel, Stuttgart, Salzburg, Hannover, Karlsruhe, Debrecen, Saumur…).
