Coming from an Organist/ Choir Director at my church, the Major has so much feeling for the piece of music in which is being played. His body language is not only showing pride in America but also he is conducting the band as well as the audience. I personally would like to thank him for all that he has done. What a wonderful arrangement!!!!!! This is the Home of the BRAVE!
So who made the rule about "drum & bugle corps classification'? . . . . on a more somber note, I think this would be a good time to stand up and praise all young men and women who have given up their summers for the last ? ? how many years ? to march with a corps. Sadly not the case this summer, God bless our musicians ! ! !
THANK YOU!!!! To the USMC Drum and BUGLE Corps for keeping the BUGLE in Drum & BUGLE Corps and not following DCI's lead of the new age of Drum and Band Instrument Corps. The unique sound of a hornline using G Bugles is what drew me, and so many others to DCI in the first place. BRING THAT SOUND BACK!
@@davidwarner3326 I mean yeah but did they go through ITB? That’s where riflemen are made. Sure they mighta gone through MCT but that’s a crash course on basic infantry skills
DeutscherSoldat1871 A modern drum and bugle corps has horns, the times of your drum and bugle corps was when they were used in wartime scenarios... regardless try telling that to try US Marine Corps
@@nicholashe1198 That's called tradition. Even if they have no use they still everywhere in Germany. What's the difference between an ,,band" and an drum and bugle corps then?
@@Marco-bf4uu This is a drum and bugle corps. They're using 2 valved G bugles. They've evolved over time from using true bugles to single piston, piston/rotary, 2 piston and lastly 3 piston G bugles. In Y2K, rules changes allowed the use of Bb brass instruments in traditional corps bell front, marching configuration. They're now allowing other brass instruments and synthesizers. A marching band would include woodwinds (flutes, piccolos, clarinets, saxophones) as well as brass and percussion.
@@Marco-bf4uu Nothing weird about it. Not sure where you're getting your information from. I suggest you do a little research on modern drum and bugle corps. What you've described sounds more like the old battlefield units from the 1800's and earlier. This style of drum and bugle corps is found around the world. In the US, it has it's roots in VFW halls, scouts, churches and the American Legion. Ever hear of DCE? It stands for Drum Corps Europe. They use a similar drums/brass configuration (and includes a number of corps from Germany). I'm not sure if they're using G bugles or Bb instruments. There's also Drum Corps United Kingdom and Drum Corps Asia. So it's not just confined to the USA.
It's time that everyone accepts the fact that The Commandants Own is the last of the reL drum and bugle corps.The rest use trumpets, trombones, and corners, which makes the crap from DCI anything but true drum and bugle corps. Semper Fi USMC
@@randommemesv.1963 the designation 'rifleman' is awarded to anyone who qualifies as a 'rifleman' at the range. given that you have to qualify in boot camp, and then yearly after, every Marine is a rifleman. not every Marine is an 'infantry rifleman', an actual mos, but each is a rifleman, a qualification.
We spent $700 billion on defense last year alone. For that amount of money, these guys should be flying around the field with golden rockets in their ass, shooting silver dollars out of the ends of their G bugles.
One of the best national anthems I've ever heard from a marching ensemble. Amazing.
ApolyonTheSoulRender i was jus thinking the exact same thing
why arent they the ones who perform the national anthem for the super bowl?????
some things in life we just have to accept.
They do the Giant flag
We're too obsessed with hiring singers that butcher it.
Because the Super Bowl can’t handle the greatness and honor of the Maine Corps.
Because their red uniforms represent freedom, not Satan

ThatWasClassy
NOTHING sounds like a line of G Bugles played by amazing musicians! It's like a choir of angels singing..... I mean... those overtones!!!!!!!
no doubt ... the G bugles in all voices ring like no other
No one is better than the US marine drum corp. Not even Blue Devils
+Kalim Manigault (iGrungeisntdead10) Agreed. They cream everyone else
+Kalim Manigault (iGrungeisntdead10) Marines are made to succeed at whatever they do. And they live up too it.
Kalim Manigault Yes. Why indeed?
What about the US airforce band?
SFS Falcon NOT EVEN CLOSE MAN
The passion of their major twards the end is just awesome
Bugles ; Brighter, Edgy, Projection, Excitement ; heritage ,tradition, purity, honesty. Nuff said
3:56 That horns down though
It's the simple things that make drum corps great.
Still amazing till this day, my dad would love this. As he was a marine himself he still loves the core! Semper fi!
God bless Marines!!! The passion Major Dix has awesome. The home of the Brave indeed, Sir.
I still get chills down my spine when I hear the Star Spangle Banner!
I have watched this so many times, and it never gets old. As a retired US MARINE, it motivates me to this day. SEMPER FI MARINES !
How bout all them baris. Damn.

DCI is no longer allowed to be classified as drum and bugle corps. The use of trombones, etc has ended that tradition. Broadway show maybe?
love marching bands. My older brother trombone player and served in the Army band started in high school.
yeah this is a drum corps not exactly a marching band
drum corps is like marching band but squared
drum corps = marching band^2
SEMPER FI! OOH RAH!
Wonderful sound. Love the shine on the cymbals
Proud to be an American!!!!! SEMPER FI MARINES!!!!!
Thank u for serving our country and god bless you all.
very choral like...so balanced, smooth, and graceful
Does anyone have that cadence? Jeez i love it but I can't find it transcribed anywhere. I assume its custom to them.
Jacob Halfman EMC Productions on RUclips. Eric Carr is a tenor player and has made a video on this, which the cadence is Troop Cadence B.
Love this arrangement!
Awesome concert Boston crusaders and god bless you all.
This arrangement and Central Washington University's arrangement are probably the best arrangements I ever herd f the star spangled banner
GOD BLESS AMERICA! 🇺🇸
This is the first time in history a cloud clapped along and didnt immediately rush the beat.
That commanding officer though
feel bad who served and died
Making us proud!
Sinners marching in the summer? Only the innocent play in the summer. We wouldn’t want a summer storm..
2:00 that guy in back tho...
So good to see some men still remove their hats.
Pretty cool arrangement
Very nice
Beutiful
Because it’s so motivating, the Super Bowl will be in second place. They are definitely afraid of that happening
Play a version of their cadence. Proudly call it Marine.
Wow - G bugles!!
AWESOME!!!!!!
I would love to know who arranged this
Well done marines!
Why did the drum major directed with back away from the corps
He's also directing the audience, encouraging them to sing.
That's the director. The DM is the one saluting. As mentioned, he's directing the crowd.
All riflemen first. SEMPER FI
No sorry that’s not really true
@@randommemesv.1963, yes, yes it is.
@@davidwarner3326 No I 100% promise you that that’s not true. They’re trained to use rifles but they are not riflemen
@@randommemesv.1963, don't be a douche. They all went to boot camp and are basically trained riflemen.
@@davidwarner3326 I mean yeah but did they go through ITB? That’s where riflemen are made. Sure they mighta gone through MCT but that’s a crash course on basic infantry skills
Boys, that's not an drum and bugle corps..
An drum and bugle corps consists out of drummers and fifers which carry an bugle on their belt.

What animal has apricot in her mouth and..blows on a bugle.. in a Chevrolet.
And they're all riflemen, too.

Channel Three Ha! Do you know how much these guys get out of that 700?
With 700 you can buy 1 contra ....or 1/10 of a DCI tour
I made 650 bucks on the 1st and the 15th....we get NOTHING (and I was Army so I was still pretty high up on the budget priority list)
Big they screwed that up; pathetic
