Only issue I can hear is the vertical alignment on the main vocalist towards the end, but that could also just be a consequence of the audience not being directly in front of the performers.
Yes! I don't know how many people know that line in the movie was a reference to something Marcus Aurelius actually wrote. Imagine him hearing that, 2000 years in his future.
@@rafaelnubile Couldn't agree more. I see so many people commenting on things like this saying how much they've been moved like never before. And I think it's very sad that as a collective we've lost our sense of true beauty and also unconditional love. We need a reset but i fear it's never coming!
It’s only befitting that a real military band covers this masterpiece theme songs in a military movie. And boy, did they do a great justice to it? Wow. Well-done lads.
Goosebumps @ 1:50 "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next." - Maximus Decimus Meridius
That part in the movie gives me goosebumps too!! I've played a medley of themes from Gladiator in concert bands ....... but nothing touches this!! Superb.
I have experienced a live Hans Zimmer concert, I have to say I was blown away. When it came to this particular song I cried. Lisa Gerrards voice was beyond amazing. It was the best Mother's day gift my daughter ever gave me.
A testament to how far we've come since WWII. To think we'd see The Band of His Majesties Royal Marines play Hans Zimmer. As German, I feel so incredibly humbled by the performance. I'm simply in complete awe for lack of a better word. Thank you so much for that performance.
To me as an Englishman this isn't a big deal. The forces bands regularly play German music, from the golden age of German music. Playing Hans Zimmer doesn't even figure.
As a life long proud to have served Member of the United States Marine Corps, I found this video EXCEPTIONAL in the way of "MARINES”. whatever the Country…….ALWAYS in search of PERFECTION ……….SEMPER FIDELIS … my British Brothers and Sisters…..Absolutely BRILLIANT🇬🇧🏴🏴 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Im Argentinian and have the upmost respect for the UK forces.. we had a fall out but thats done and done, no? this performance was just heavenly... said it again, the corporal has such a beautiful voice.
It would be nice if it was done. But from your end the message is that it's the opposite of done. A massive shame because your country and people are wonderful in so many ways. Peace and beauty to all!
We did have a "fall out" but don't think for one minute we won't react the same way. RIP those who fell. Your military junta decided to play games.. we answered the call...
“Maximus…Maximus…Maximus. They call for you. The general who became a slave. The slave who became a gladiator. The gladiator who defied an emperor. Striking story! But now, the people want to know how the story ends. Only a famous death will do. And what could be more glorious than to challenge the Emperor himself in the great arena?”
WOW! Gladiator is my all time favourite film. This rendition of Hans Zimmer's music is on another level. The music, the setting, and the precision - incredible.
Did you know that Zimmer actually uses Morricone as his inspiration for getting into music in the first place. Both are masters with their own unique styles.
This always brings me to tears when she sings her glorious tribute of mourning remembrance. May that one day, dawn upon us, that we may no longer war among ourselves and that war may be eradicated from our hearts and peace may reign deep within our souls true nature, forever and ever until the memory fades from our minds of what we once had to endure upon this earth. Amen.
"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next." yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. All time favorites ❤
My God! Sadly, I cannot play any instrument.... standing or even sitting still. How proud I am to be British. Thank you all so very much. The vocalist sang like an Angel. God bless you all 🤗😘💖❤🙏
Precision marching whilst playing a superb, but diificult piece of music. Simply awesome. If you are not moved by this anthem,then you are already dead.
This is arguably the best performance of this music from the film Gladiator. To be able to play at this level as well as marching - just fabulous to watch. The young lady who sings has a wonderful voice.
LCpl Hannah Smither is the young lady, and she's done some excellent vocal pieces with the Bands of HM Royal Marines of late. And you're quite right, I would support your argument for this being the best performance of Zimmer's score.
Fabulous, as only the Royal Marines can perform such a great rendition! Best marching/field/concert band on the planet. Thank you from a former US Navy Band Member in the USA.
Le public qui a eu la chance d'écouter et de voir ce spectacle n'oubliera jamais ces minutes de bonheur. Il n'y a pas de mots assez valorisant pour qualifier cette prestation.

That was the most amazing thing I've ever seen bearing in mind that when they aren't ceremonial, they are fully dedicated soldiers to the King God bless the Royal Marines Per Mare, Per Terram
Die Kompositionen von Hans Zimmer rührt mich immer und immer wieder zur Gänsehaut und zu Tränen. Und auch wie es hier von der Royal Marines vorgetragen wurde, einfach nur perfekt 😍. Wäre ich gerne dabei gewesen. Dieses Lied habe ich zu meiner Frau Ihrer Beerdigung gespielt und auch deswegen berührt es mich immer noch sehr. 😢
Erst einmal, mein herzliches Beileid. Und ja, Hans Zimmer ist so ein genialer Komponist. Der Gladiatorsoundtrack begleitet mich seit meiner Kindheit als ich den Film noch nicht sehen durfte. Er war damals schon für mich immer fantastisch anzuhören. Heute als Erwachsener ist es für mich der beste Filmsoundtrack der je gemacht wurde.
Praise Marcus! All Praise the Emperor's Wisdom! Forever and Ever, we salute you! Memento Mori! Amor Fati! We thank you, Oh Supreme Creator for giving us the Wisdom of Marcus Aurelius! We worship you!
Phantastisch gespielt! Ich habe Gänsehaut rauf und runter bekommen, vor allem, wenn die junge Frau gesungen hat. Und dazu läuft das ganze Orchester auch noch Performance! Hammerstark!
Awesome performance. I had the pleasure of being a part of the 350th Anniversary concert of the British Royal Marine Corps in a beating retreat on that very parade grounds as a member of the 2d Marine Division Band from Camp Lejuene, North Carolina, USA
this is beyond incredible. Not only did they do Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard proud, they elevated this entire experience with the Milltary composition that echoes the warriors in Rome at the time. Beautifully rendered and the voice of the lead vocalist is amazing. Bravo to all!
Couldn't have said it better myself. You can just imagine that being a roman legion on parade and the sense of history in it. Great Britain of today can trace its history to the Roman Empire and todays Empire, the United States even though it doesn't like that label can trace its history to the British Empire. They all fought each at one point but civilizations with similar but evolving values.
There is plenty of online coverage of RMB with vocalists, including the very talented BandLCpl Hannah Smithers, but also others, female and male covering a range of musical genres from Elton John to Jazz through to the Skye Boat Song,
I suggest searching for The Mountbatten Festival of Music on here and marvel at not only LCpl Smithers, but the phenomenal Cpl Sam McIndoe, who performs what is the seminal version of Dire Straits’ Brothers In Arms.
Every single person rehearsed so well that the whole thing was seamless - the marines, of course, but also the sound and picture folk did their own roles so well. It makes you proud.
In all sincerity (spelling?) , this might be the most epic video on all of RUclips. I want to cry while shivering because it's so daunting & mesmerizing at the same time. Marines, thank you.
Oh WOW, Not only was that an epic piece of music, but you made that yours as well. What I also noticed, was the girl that sung solo, you could see that she was very much into it. Very moved, the looks on her face, she was part of Gladiator. And now I have to rewatch this film again now, for about the 26th time.
Oh man, what's this magic! I can visualize the whole film by listening to their speechless efforts of playing this incredible music and moving along with it.
The Bands of HM Royal Marines.......are soo darn good!! and I'm choked by just how good they are, just so proud of what they are and the superb way they represent my/our Country!
The more I watch this, I'm still in awe of how how wonderful it is. I watch it very often when I am composing my semon for our Sunday services. I very much regret that I didn't know my husband's father who was a Royal Marine, a very accomplished musician and who would have loved this.
After a bad day yesterday 😡, this is amazing. My late dad was in the Royal Navy ,submarine’s primarily. Sat through many concerts as we are lucky to have a marine base near where I live. Fantastic what they do home and away❤️
God! Every time I watch it, it feels even better. It brings a tear to my eye every time. I am not British but that is an amazing example of what human society can create, pure heavenly magic! Although the band is military based the freedom they have as a not for profit, without political or religious interference is the best example of what humans, people in a free democratic society can create. You 100% will never se that in an autocratic society or dictatorship. That is freedom and people at their best, Brilliant!
That vocal solo is amazing , and a very brave thing to do, Standing out in the middle of the square on your own , no comrades to shelter you , just you and your talent ./ fantastic, well done to the beautiful and talented young lady.😍😍😍
I watched the Gladiator again yesterday 9/13/2024 and still love the movie and soundtrack. This movie 🎥 is twenty some years old and I still cry at the end of the movie everytime I watch it. I think this is the best movie Russell Crow has made.😊
Absolutely brilliant in all aspects! Marching, Playing and Singing. This video should be issued to all the other British Military Bands, to demonstrate how to do a Parade Properly.😃😃😃😃
Flippin heck... just came across this by accident.. i never knew that The Bands of HM Royal Marines did stuff like this.. ABSOLUTELY JAW-DROPPING..!!! My gosh.. i;m sat here shaking.. that was amazing..!! And the female vocalist.. well.. NAILED it..!!
Absolute perfection - a wonderful arrangement and an exquisite performance of this epic theme tune. Matched by no other! May I add that my husband's father was in the Royal Marines and was an accomplished musician and a prisoner of war captured in Crete and ultimately held in Austria, he would have absolutely loved this. He played the church organ for our services before WWII and his son, my husband David plays now and has done for over 40 years.
God damn that vocalist is a star. Very few should attempt to replicate Lisa Gerrard's original performance but this Marine Band singer is an absolute star.
As an old US Army grunt, by the GODS you Royal Marine musicians absolutely NAILED this composition. Sua Sponte brothers and sisters, even a broken old Ranger like me would strap on my gear again to fight after hearing you play this song.
To The Bands of HM Royal Marines: thank you so, so much. It’s a privilege to be able to listen to this breathtaking performance! The energy, the power, the flawless execution. Just gorgeous! Just perfect, thank you 🙏
Whose heart will not swell with pride listening to this?!
mine cos is rubish lol
Hans Zimmer is one of the best composers of the modern era. Hauntingly beautiful!
I totally expect his and John Williams' compositions to be played still 200 - 300 years from now the way we still play Mozart and Bach
What other stuff did he do?

No. Jo
For no reason I almost cried.
This is pure magic.

They are primarily musicians, but very well trained.

One of the best performance I ever seen....... Her voice is from Heaven...... Tears in my eyes
I DROVE a coach for 10 years all over England and I've got to say the Royal Marine band are absolute perfection at its very best 👌
Absolute perfection - a wonderful arrangement and an exquisite performance of this epic theme tune. Matched by no other! May I add that my husband's father was in the Royal Marines and was an accomplished musician and a prisoner of war captured in Crete and ultimately held in Austria, he would have absolutely loved this. He played the church organ for our services before WWII and his son, my husband David plays now and has done for over 40 years.
God damn that vocalist is a star. Very few should attempt to replicate Lisa Gerrard's original performance but this Marine Band singer is an absolute star.
As an old US Army grunt, by the GODS you Royal Marine musicians absolutely NAILED this composition. Sua Sponte brothers and sisters, even a broken old Ranger like me would strap on my gear again to fight after hearing you play this song.

Brilliant arrangement Choreography, marching, vocalist, conductor, and musicians far above average Bravo

The best Military band in the world by far. Wow this was just amazing well done the Royals .

I have seen Hans Zimmer perform this live, and this is every bit as good!
What an incredible performance by the Royal Marine Band. Bravo Zulu to the band lance corporal for singing the Gladiator theme. Marvelous!
I have never felt so much strong goosebumps before, just incredible.
This would probably give Hans Zimmer himself goosebumps!
