Hearing these themes live like this must have been amazing... the band played well...just not sure how the hell anyone could just talk through this whole thing though.
That was great, hearing the Band of the Coldstreams perform the theme from Original Star Trek, Next Generation/The Motion Picture, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and even Generations! Makes me want to book a flight to London!
That was awesome! Thanks for uploading the Buckingham Palace tribute to the CBS-owned 'Star Trek' franchise on your visit from Germany to the United Kingdom. Live long and prosper! Lebhaftlange und erweitern sich! Greetings from the United States of America!
Actually, I think you'll find that the themes go as follows (with timings a bit loose): 0:00-1:10 Star Trek: The Original Series Theme 1:19-1:45 Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 9 Theme 1:45-2:34 Star Trek Generations Overture 3:07-3:40 Star Trek Voyager Theme 3:47-4:30 Star Trek The Next Generation Theme 4:30-end Star Trek TOS reprise
Liked the first theme, the second theme started correctly but then it started to sound nothing like the theme. It's funny some of the songs they play, would love to go down there and listen sometime. Thanks for uploading the vid.
Nice medley! Considering the best source for science fiction shows in America is BBC America, I'm not surprised! Just wanted Red Dwarf and Dr Who themes as well! What fun!
I'm glad to see the quality on the video was pretty good. I hate it when people turn their cameras around to get themselves in the shot, or when they're talking over the performance. There are so many bad videos of the Guards' performances. So thank you for a good job.
The Palace Guard was forced to play for a Saudi ruler known for ignoring human rights. The song they played was Darth Vader's Imperial Death March. The ruler loved it.
Fucking great. XD Awesome! :-O And - i really think, at least the sound quality isn't that bad. I don't really care about the picture quality, as there is not much changing so not much who really have to see. Most important is the sound quality which is good enaugh.
I think the best Star Trek soundtracks are: - original theme by Alexander Courage - James Horner's theme for ST-2 and ST-3 - Jerry Goldsmith's theme for ST-1 ST-5 and The Next Generation
@borg2424 I'd be tempted to go with the sound being slightly out of sync. You'd truly be amazed at some of the tunes they play. Everything from Star Trek to Kashmir to Austin Powers! Not forgetting, of course, the time honoured military music you would expect to hear. ;-)
Except for the disrespectful talking while the music was playing I gave this a thumbs up. Next time not off the chatter and show some respect for your country.
Howie Lane Show some gratitude mate. They recorded this and put it up for you to watch, and all you do is come here and give them a telling off. In MY eyes YOU’RE the one being disrespectful.
I am not sure I'm buying this. Sounds like a hoax as the conductor seems to be off on a lot of notes, unless the sound itself is off. I also noticed "skips" in the video and the music did not miss a beat. Hmmmmmmm?
