      Well you dindt see them and they are not in the title. I hears the " Locke" from the pipes and drums and though: huh that cant be a British band. There must be Germand marching behind them. Only Germany and Austria have " die Locke" before they start a march.

    Happy to see and listen that all three marches mix great together, drums, horns, well.
    As i'm german i tend to give fredericus rex a minimal more plus. Second favourite to me is Sarafand.
    Uniforms big plus to Guard Division.
    Best scene at 5:55, highlight in fredericus rex match exactly to first row cames straight around the street.
    Best matching in the world.
    A shame that this wasn't shown in german tv.
    But that seemed to be sacrificed to Merkel's coalition with france.
    The queen was not allowed to lay a wreath to a memorial in Hannover remebering germans in the KGL in 1965.
    Also not to touch the french.
    Thank you England to have the honour to march with you.

      @@Jabber-ig3iw That's not correct, the "Sturmtruppen" (Stormtroopers) were a unit of the imperial German Army in WW1. I think you mean the SA (Sturmabteilung) of the NSDAP.

    Lovely music but the dressing of the drum majors needs a little bit of work.

    Pity about the Drum Majors fiddling about with their uniforms whilst marching in front of this Massed Bands, especially the second Drum Major away from the camera where on two or three occasions he kept touching his face and looking at his watch ? Doesn't he know he's always on camera and shouldn't do that ? It's called discipline, Drum Major, DISCIPLINE !
    Can you imagine if every musician in the band kept fiddling around and looking around, instead of marching correctly. SuperNutkin

      Timing is everything. They are deciding whether to step out or step short. They need to be in a particular place at a particular time, hence he checks his watch to see if they are on time.
