Fantastic! Military bands playing proper military band repertoire, great old marches. You don't see displays like this anymore! Many thanks for posting the video.
Great to find this - thanks, Mogens! Back in the 80s, we Brits had maybe 60 or 70 military bands to choose from! And the 3 that are here are not even the most famous (or best), yet the do an absolutely splendid job, with great drill, perfect musicianship, so much variety and a really loud and evocative sound! Today, both the Armed Forces and the bands have been cut (though on the bright side the quality is still extremely good).
This was a great show. Today both units don't have an own band at all. As far as I know the cuts had began and some of the battalion bands were disbanded. Still most infantry regiments had two bands. And Corps had their big staff bands. Now only regular bands having their regimental identity are those of Guards and Gurkhas. I'm afraid of that some day Foot Guards' band will be merged too.
Dejlig seriøs og upoppet evolering! Militærmusik, som det burde være uden leflen for et publikum, som man tror, vil spises af med det seneste pophit og musikere, som danser Gangnam Style og Kalinka! 🙏💂💂💂👍🏼
The Para's are not a “Royal” regiment. The current idea of having Army Bands seems to have come from the US, so no doubt the British Army is going to become a wholly owned part of the Pentagon.
Bands in the any armed forces existed since medieval times, as musical instruments were often used to communicate across chaotic battlefields. Notably, the fife and drums corps of any particular British Army regiment were in battle as drum signals could be used to send orders from across the line when voices could not be heard. The first professional army band in Britain is the Royal Artillery band, which dates to 1557, but did not become "official" until 1762.

One of the things I loved watch , when I was young, was the Edinburgh Military Tattoo on the tele. Fantastic.

Great, can't beat listening to good military bands well done to all. Paras bandservice sounding marvellous, love the Carmen rendition.

What a nice surprise to hear excerpts from Carmen and the Spanish march El Albanico at the 4:20 mark. Thank you for posting this fine video.
Love this. What a spectacle to behold. GSTQ
감정에 붉은 색이지만 적당한 무개감이ㅡ있어요. 실제 퍼레이드를 보지만. 비행기 군함 탱크든 없이 사람과 악기로 이렇게 화려하고 위엄있고 절도있고 힘있게 되는게 이상할 정도.

I always figured it was the other way around.
