Another Spiffing video!! It was a lovely sight to see DM Fairley leading the Band once again! The marches played were, 1) 0:04-Standard of St. George 2) 2:30-Northumbrian Airs 3) 5:45-The Thunderer 4) 8:50-The Coldstream Colonel (General Willie) (Return to Barracks) 5) 12:30-The Old Grey Mare 6) 14:06-Radetzky March 7) 16:28-The ADJ 8) 21:59-Milanollo
As an American I always find it gratifying when the guards play John Philip Sousa. “The Thunderer March” was purported to be Sousa’s personal favorite.
I like when UK bands play Sousa too. But I think he is best done by the US Marine Bands or the Royal Marines Bands. US Marine vet here, so a bit biased.
@@christophertipton2318 I am a 72 year old American who played in the high school band. If you played in any American high school band you are familiar with “The Thunderer.” The woodwind triplets in the trio are murder.
@@ak104ka , yes, one of the bass trombone players (there are 2, one at each end) was also playing in Changing the Guard that morning, playing in the Band of the Welsh Guards. He's the one with a moustache, nearest the camera at 16:10 .
❤ Beautifully done. So perfect it doesn't look or sound real--even though I know it is. Props to you all from an enthusiastic listener from Connecticut in the USA! *Question: Is there a way to get the names of the tunes played? Thsnks to you all for your service.🎉
Hahahaha! How Cheeky, there's usually more than Bands and Soldiers to watch on these videos, a little something for everyone! 😅😂 "Taking in the views I call it"! 🤣🤣🤣
Members of The Coldstream Guards' Association for former and serving members of the regiment. This annual event is organized by the association to honour the regiment's fallen. The march led by the Band of the Coldstream Guards is to the Guards' Memorial at Horse Guards Parade for a brief remembrance ceremony and to lay a wreath. It would have been preceded by a short service in the Guards' Chapel at Wellington Barracks. Those wearing the bowler hats and carrying umbrellas, by custom, denote former or serving officers. Civilian dress for the participants is set by the association : dark suit, shirt and regimental tie and medals for all ranks.

@@MrBaton74 You're most welcome MrB!
I never tire of watching this video. Excellent job to all who participated. Luv them all.
Thank you for your inspiration -- so neat, tidy, organised and British. !
A lovely selection of marches.

So proud of you son 🇬🇧💂♀️👏
Enjoyed this, thank you again for enabling me to see 😊
You are very welcome.
Hi, Hazel
@@charlottecunningham2141 Hi Charlotte, hope you’re well and happy 😃
Splendid!
They sound great!
These people must have a TREMENDOUS amount of stamina to be able to march those long distances and play all at the same time!
If I was able to play and march, I’d choose the drums or cymbals because I’d pass out otherwise 😂
I have a question. Was the bass trombone player performing at the changing of the guard this morning? If so, his stamina is incredible.

@@MikeM14-40 Thank you for kindly teaching me. Your video was also nice! Thank you!
Cymbals would be my choice...drumming is hard work too.@@charlottecunningham2141
A great video thank you.
Thank you.
Great Marching and music.//😮

Oops, I didn’t see this list earlier. My phone screen is small. Thank you for the list.
@@adeleozanne3427 Hello Adele! You're very Welcome, I'm Always more than happy to provide the marches/music! Greetings from New York State!
@delvinrodriguez3341 where in New York are you?
@@adeleozanne3427 Hello, I can't say exactly where for safety reasons. But, I'm in Western New York.
Ok. Well I'm in Southern CT.
😊😊😊😊😊
why is the side drummer wearing a sword ?
It’s a bandmaster. So they are eligible to wear a scabbard
The drummer is the Band Sergeant Major, who along with the Bandmaster , wears a sword.
Thank you.
Swords are worn, but rarely drawn on parade, by Warrant Officers.
I only rewound to 2.40 to watch the blond on the bike!!!

Who are the people marching behind the band in civilian clothes?
