Kampen Janitsjarorkester

The Kampen Janitsjarorkester is a Norwegian marching wind band from the neighbourhood of Kampen in Oslo. The wind orchestra was founded 10 September 1929.

Kampen Wind Orchestra is made up of only men. The orchestra plays most often locally in Oslo, but also in the rest of the country and occasionally abroad.

The orchestra has led to a number of fields for band, although there has been an active member of this movement. The orchestra has gone their separate ways when it comes to musical styles, content and execution has been at the center. It introduced swing music in the street in the 1950s, where 12th Street Rag was the first "song". After this, the orchestra has played nearly 100 "tracks" by among others Rolf Letting, Frode Thingnæs and Helge Førde.

Battle Wind Orchestra has also released several albums and CDs.

One of the signature songs of The Kampen Janitsjarorkester is "Sing As We Go", which the band both plays and sings while marching.
