    The British bands have a sound of their own.

      Cornets as well as trumpets. And this is a very "dry" recording, with no reverb.

      Begging your pardon, but there is a small amount. However, as you say, it is a rather dry recording.

    I heard this march a lot at parade marching band competitions when I was a youth. Never played it myself though. Sadly, at a parade comp you only ever heard the first 2 minutes (up to about the first phrase of the trio), because that's how long it took to march the length of the competition area.

    • @T_Mo271
      @T_Mo271 4 года назад +1

      I recall one group carried a couple of black powder muskets, which they would fire off on the downbeat of the intro. Impressive.

      Jonathan Titterton ever play the maple city on baritone? we go back and forth between trumpets and low brass with almost no rests. about 16 8th rest and they're all before the trio then the grandioso sounds amazing. great song though

    I believe it is the Welsh Guards. They had a recording on RUclips with their name attached, but then they pulled it. However, I recognize the sound of the euphonium player in the second strain, and also the dignified tempo at which they perform this march.

  • @supernutkin5122
    @supernutkin5122 6 лет назад +10

    another great "stately slow tempo" ..... probably about 100 beats / paces to the minute ...... better than something played fast and furious, almost having to run when marching fast. SuperNutkin

    • @hiltonhazeltine

    Red plumes are the Coldstream guards, they're likely forming the massed bands there with the 5 guards bands for the queens birthday parade or some other special occasion.

    Apart from this march, the Army of the Nile has virtually vanished from history. It was the Army that later became the 8th Army when the British started giving Armies numbers and not names (always river names BTW).

      Not quite Lawrence of Arabia, but for general Richard O' Connor. Kenneth Alford composed this march for the British Western Desert Force (O'connor's command) after their victory with Operation Compass late 1940 ~ early 1941

      The primary role of the British Guards Regiments are as infantry men not Palace Guards like the Norwerian Paace Guard.
