BRST quantization of the one-dimensional constrained matrix model whichdescribes two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on the cylinder is performed.Classical and quantum BRST generators and BRST-invariant hamiltonians areconstructed. Evolution operator is expressed in terms of BRST path integral.Advantages of the BRST quantization over the reduced phase space approachleading to the theory of $N$ free fermions are discussed.Comment: 8 page
