The history of the unit can be traced to the early days of the Marine Corps. In the 18th and 19th centuries military musicians, or "field musics," provided a means of passing commands to Marines in battle formations. The sound of various drum beats and bugle calls could be easily heard over the noise of the battlefield and signaled Marines to attack the enemy or retire for the evening. Through the 1930's, Marine Corps posts were still authorized a number of buglers and drummers to play the traditional calls and to ring a ship's bell to signal the time.
The United States Marine Drum & Bugle Corps was formed in 1934 to augment the United States Marine Band. The unit provided musical support to ceremonies around the nation's capitol and, during World War II, was tasked with Presidential support duties. For this additional role, they were awarded the scarlet and gold breast cord by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, which they still proudly display on their uniform.
When the war ended, the Drum & Bugle Corps resumed performing at various military and public ceremonies.
In the early 1950s the unit gained considerable acclaim performing for an increasing number of civilian audiences. Music composed specifically for their unique selection of instruments helped establish their reputation for excellence during this period. These factors also led to the unit's formal designation as "The Commandant's Own”-a title noting their unique status as musicians for the Commandant of the Marine Corps.
In the tradition of their "field music" predecessors, these musicians in "The Commandant's Own" are Marines in the truest sense of the word. Every enlisted member is a graduate of Marine Corps recruit training and is trained in basic infantry skills. Prior to enlisting, each Marine must pass a demanding audition for service in the Drum & Bugle Corps. Following Recruit Training and Marine Combat Training, the Marines are assigned to "The Commandant's Own."
The unit travels the world along with the United States Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon and the Official Color Guard of the Marine Corps as the United States Marine Corps Battle Color Detachment.
Awesome. Crawford Hall is beautiful and sounds amazing. I'm sure my Dad is so proud of his D&B performing great music.
Heard them on a field presentation in Fredericksburg , Va. In 1996. Three soprano bugles played the typical piccolo part. Awesome triple tonguing , most impressive version I've ever heard.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
God, truly Loves the Corps. Amen. Beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Perfection.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Not one note out of place. I expect no less from the *MARINES.*
This is by far the best of the military 🎶musicians in the country 👏👌🙌👍😳😀
OMG the percussion arrangement so good
The lyrics by John Phillips Sousa himself:
First strain
Let martial note in triumph float
And liberty extend its mighty hand
A flag appears 'mid thunderous cheers,
The banner of the Western land.
The emblem of the brave and true
Its folds protect no tyrant crew;
The red and white and starry blue
Is freedom's shield and hope.
Let eagle shriek from lofty peak
The never-ending watchword of our land;
Let summer breeze waft through the trees
The echo of the chorus grand.
Sing out for liberty and light,
Sing out for freedom and the right.
Sing out for Union and its might,
O patriotic sons.
Second strain
𝄆 Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of Freedom's nation. 𝄇
Trio
Hurrah for the flag of the free!
May it wave as our standard forever,
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right.
Let tyrants remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever.
Grandioso
Hurrah for the flag of the free.
May it wave as our standard forever
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right.
Let tyrants remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray,
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever.
Thanks brother
Very restrained, dignified performance for these guys, because they have a legit MONSTER hornline that can unleash the beast at a moments notice.
Too true! I remember hearing them at DCI Finals back in 1998, and if I remember right they were all the way on the OTHER side of the stadium playing to the fans taking their seats. They were LOUD. Like, from what would’ve been around 80 yards away? Blew my head open. I could not believe how an ensemble as small as they were could put out that kind of volume, and with such wonderful tone quality.
When I marched in 2000, I think it was just before we went on for Finals, I met one of their contras holding their beautiful King K-90s while he admired our Dynasty 4V Super Magnum (in G of course). I asked if he’d like to trade, and he laughed and said sure but I’d (meaning little BAC me) get in trouble. Super nice dude.
America 4 life! 🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️
Memorable! As WBA took the field in the 40's and 50's.. HAPPY DAYS although we had nothing
Sadly Back In High School, If You Were In The Band, Many Other Students Would Make Fun Of Us. I Am Sure You Can Guess What They Said! These Military Music Groups Are Wonderful.
Why Do You Type Like This, it’s super hard to read
@@ebooneLOL
Wow! Super tremendous!! Thank you very much!!!!
Simply the best! Beautiful! Semper Fidelis! 🇺🇸
Perfectly performed as ever always. Hurray to the commandant's own. From the Philippines...
Absolutely brilliant performance!! I only wish I were there to hear it in person
Beautiful! Simply the best! Semper Fidelis! 🇺🇸
Bravo!
Magnificent performance! Played as only the Marine Drum and Bugle Corps can.
I think the keyboard feature (in place of the traditional piccolo feature) should have been given to a soprano bugle ... IMHO, because that's what we did with the Archer-Epler Musketeers ...
RIP Bobby Carney ...
/s/ USMC (Retired)
they use G bugles, and a G piccolo bugle does and was used few times by DCI corps. Probably hellishly difficult to play in tune.
@@GuitarClassVideos We didn't use a piccolo soprano bugle w/Archer-Epler ... Bobby Carney played an "everyday" soprano bugle keyed in G on this feature ...
I saw them live in Fredericksburg, Va and a trio of soprano bugles triple tongued their way through what has been the piccolo solo. As a former trumpet player, it gave me goosebumps. In perfect unison.
I knew Bob Heft. He would have loved this!
SALUTE! Beautifully done ✅💯🙏❤️🎉
❤REMEMBER 2 UNFURL U FLAGS & SOAR EM HIGH ON JUNE 14TH EVERY YEAR. IT IS AFTER ALL FLAG DAY❤
Colonel Truman W. Crawford, who led the Yankee Rebels Drum and Bugle Corps of Baltimore, Maryland, to three American Legion National championships, was the commander and director of "The Commandant's Own". His picture hangs in this hall. He was my friend and my bugle instructor. May He Rest In Peace.
In the manner that can only be performed by the Marine D & B Corps. Thank you!

A very nice version, well done. Thank you. The Mellophones are an interesting voice improvement, surprise.
USA!
nice alternate version of our national march...
God I love my country 🇺🇲
Magnífico! Extraordinária execução!
Salve, salve, John Philip Sousa, o maior e o melhor em todos os tempos!!!
I already made a flag day special
Fantastic!
🇺🇸
Poor Bob Heft, he got a B- for his flag design.
very well done.
Happy flag day
This is Brilliant.
Those Marines are strac and damn good!
Best Flag Day ever 🇺🇸
1:10 that percussion is insane
WOW that was very nice. i broke my foot! John is coming over saturday to see my new house. hope you and yours are well! oxoxoxoox Beth
Where can I see it without the text screens?
As a former Army bandsman, I have always believed this group should be considered a Special band. Same musical greats but pay is different! These Marines are E-2 and up! Special bands ie President’s Own United States Marine Band, US Army Band, US Navy Band, etc start at E-6! Difference is education! But, these Marines are spectacular performers and their unique talent as Drum and Bugle musicians is a whole different breed of the other bands and should be paid for it! Also, Special bands have commissioned officers! Army bands at military installations have Warrant officers. NOTE: This group is led by commissioned officers!
Acp 128 top up by big tance heavy haaawoohhh
Are they using G bugles?
Yes. Two valve bugles in the key of G, custom made by Kanstul.
@@voiceofreason9238, look closer...
@@voiceofreason9238 Actually, we have upgraded to 3 valve G bugles manufactured by System Blue!
and on the 8th day God made the Marines.
Hi Sir, they can I find it this musical sheet instead a original version. Like very much on this version.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💥💥💥💥
1:09 How do they sound exactly like virtual drumline
Tried to post this on Fakebook and it said that this beautiful performance could not be shared because it offended other people.

More Guggen-like than military-like.
I know it’s a drum and bugle corps, but eliminating the piccolos by using marimbas is the perfect way to maintain a tuned ensemble.

Happy Flag Day (today), everybody! 🇺🇸
Wonder why it's not a federally-recognized holiday? (Or is it?)
Nope. Conservatives, have failed trying. It's observance is recognized every June 14th by the President(of the USA), and of course...Veterans of the Armed Forces of America, and proud patriots of Freedom.
@@Accu53Mation So people have attempted to do so. At least they're trying.
@@Accu53Mation It should be federally recognized, I say.
Are there no trombones in drum corps?
No.
Definitely NOT
