Makes my days listening too and watching these guys and gals doing their stuff👍👍👍. Trapped at home rehabbing after ticker repair, and these vids keep me sane. Cheers to you military events👍👍👍
@@doraldeddy1836 Thank you very much for getting back to me. Your good news just made my day. Thank you also for your best wishes. My best wishes to you also, from Oregon, USA.
Fantastic video! The marches played were, 1) Under the Double Eagle 2) National Emblem 3) On the Quarterdeck 4) Eroica 5) The Mareth Line 6) Steadfast and True 7) Lilliburlero
I like to spend a few moments of the day watching and listening to your videos. I love the band whatever it is and whoever plays! Unfortunately we in Italy do not have the diffusion of musical culture like you do, everything is done voluntarily by people who like to play. Keep it up, thanks
A really superb video The picture and sound quality are first rate! This is one of the best Windsor Guard Change videos I have seen recently. Nice to see The Band of the Grenadier Guards in good form and with a full compliment of 40 pieces instead of the usually 35 for these events.
I must say this is one of your finest marching videos I’ve seen so far and have long been watching!! Superb clarity of audio and video.Thank You again!!
Superb video once again! Great to hear the Band of the Grenadier Guards! I noticed there’s a new bass trombonist he looks familiar? Ex Coldstream guards Band?
IWho would like to arm wrestle the base drummer? Wow - Under the Double Eagle followed by the National Emblem (alternate lyrics - a monkey wrapped his tail around...) Nice work -really an excellent video.
I'm wondering why some of the barack's guards are standing at attention and do salute the Band and the Guard troops while others (like in this example) are just standing there as if they're waiting for the bus ??? Is there no standard protocol for that...anyone knows ??
If its the regiment at the gate, in this case Coldstreamers, they HAVE to salute, i thought the other ones with blue berets would too, but I guess not.
The band sounds Great! The band also looks Great! I love those red coats. May I ask a question? I noticed that most of the bandsmen are NCO'S ( sergeants and corporals. ) Does a guardsman need to be an NCO or almost an NCO to be in the band? I hope this is not a stupid question, as I really am not an expert on ranks in the British army. Thank you, for a great video.
Lillibulero and Aupres de ma Blonde are the Corps march of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers ( REME ), who formed the old guard. Regimental marches are played as the guard returns to barracks.
I'm a bit confused I love watching these videos but I'm confused as to the uniforms. This band in black and red with the buzzbees then there's one where the troops are wearing long coats and calvary helmets then there's another with them wearing a different uniform. Are the all different eliments of the cold stream guard or different units rotated in to guard Windsor castle.
All different regiments … black and red as you call it are the bands of the Guards regiments (there are 5 ).. and they are bearskins not buzbys, buzbys are small and worn but the Royal Horse Artillery (kings troop) long coats are the winter dress uniforms and Calvary helmets are the Blues and Royals and Household Calvary regiments
An infantry band at the head of a battalion needs a strong beat to enable all to keep in step. Most bands these days are marching orchestras no good for the battalion column.
