When it was founded, the band was based at the 2nd Regional Area Command in Rome, until the year 1995, in which it passed its administrative dependencies to the Air Force General Affairs Department.

At the inauguration ceremony of the Band, a sort of mystical baptism, the distinguished composer Pietro Mascagni intervened as an exceptional godfather, who directed it in the first concert.

Subsequently, on 20 September 1937, the band was officially presented to the nation, with a concert held at the headquarters of Ente Italiano per le Audizioni Radiofoniche (the state radio).

In 1940, the band was invited to Belgium to perform concerts that were subsequently broadcast by radio in Brussels, in favor of Italian and German troops.
