Thank you for posting such beautiful and interesting videos. Compliments from your italian fan❤
Big loud Drum Major Northern Ireland accent, awesome 👊👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely superb from start to finish! I thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening to the whole thing, months after the event and from miles away. Thank you everso for posting this video, both visual and sound clarity is amazing.🥰
A Portuguese by birth and a British Citizen by choice and loving it!
The Coronation Parade, for all the rain, that left wheel from Whitehall through Admiralty Arch then sweeping down The Mall. That's how it's done.
being an ex soldier it's always a pleasure to listen to the massed bands. well done guys
Absolutely brilliant, everything is perfect and filming a band in such conditions is far from to be an easy thing. Thank you so much for this high quality video.
From down under its great to watch and hear the marching bands of the UK.
Usual high standard. Very clever editing of more than one event and you didn't drop the beat or the visual effect. All on the correct foot. Thank you
8.43 bloody high note for one Cornet player !💪💪👍👍
Who wouldn’t follow these into battle, god save the king 🇬🇧
The Edwardian swagger is lovely to see and hear. Thank you.
Hi Military Events, another superb production from you! Many thanks for all the work and skill in putting this together, and for bringing it to us.
Thank you!!

Really impressive bands and good catchy music. I'm very fond of these military marches. Good work guys! And God save the king.
Without a doubt we have the best military bands in the world.
Just brilliant, they all look so grand and the music is lovely, uplifting to say the least. Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Merci pour cette très belle vidéo. La musique de l'armée britannique est toujours merveilleuse.
Marvellous, Military Events! What a treat to bump into this on a day when my body feels sluggish and stay-at-home ish. Now I feel great and full of energy. Thank you! Also lovely to see Assistant Senior Drum Major Scott Fitzgerald, Coldstream Guards...shortly after this he retired again, didn't he?
Magnificent music and marching kings men!❤
The way you mixed two rehearsals effortlessly is superb, I even thought you were going to march with the massed bands onto horseguards. Thanks for you effort.
Thank you! Originally I wasn’t allowed to until someone from one of the bands let me through as that night i was in uniform myself!
How refreshing. You showed us all of the band. I was afraid in the first few minutes that all we were going to see was the front row, as is the case with so many clips of marching bands. Thank you.
It doesn't matter what type of band you are, nothing can hold a candle to the Houshold Divisiond bands.
watch the Junior leaders drilling and bands playing you will be surprised going back for as long as you like Try the JL RASC RCT 1964.65 for example. Many of the regular Army started our military careers as JL's.
True but the Royal Marines band service especially the drummers are second to nobody
I have listened to the bands for over fifty years and without doubt HM Royal Marines are far superior. Sorry but that is the truth.
The Royal Marines may disagree!
The Band of HM Royal Marines hold a blowtorch to any other military band including the 2nd Mortlake Fife and Drum Band circa 1955
omg, the British know how to parade!! Love it!!
Great music on a beautiful day in London! Thanks!
Well, beat that, you again have surpassed yoursef smashing content as usual, regards🏴💙
Fantastic music and musicians
Thankyou 💕
The only thing that could possibly be improved in this video would be having a drone flying above the band separating and coming back together in the final arena so we could see how they do it. The precision is just fantastic.
thank you so much for the wonderful video.
Absolute perfection 🇬🇧🇺🇸
just fantastic makes me feel so proud to be british and for all our armed forces to , regards kevin 😊
Thank you!
Excellent video. Thanks for your effort and for bringing all of us to these great events.
Thank you!
Thankyou for the great video and music. Regards from London, Ontario, CANADA
Hello Canada thank you for watching and enjoying our military bands. 🇬🇧🇨🇦
Bloody good marching and music, what? Salute. Command Sergeant Major retired.
This is beautiful.Fantastic drill result of hard work on the drill square.
Wonderful
Enjoying from California
Only one weird for it superb so very proud of my country's armed forces none better anywhere xx
Band is marvellous pois and grace one of the best
And so is that GREAT 🇾🇪👍
Guards Chapel is a lovely new (to me anyway) march - the middle section sounds a bit hymn like - smahing
Love that you edited 3 nights into one video. Fantastic, thank you for this great video, I did wonder how you crossed the road during the march down, but then the rain segment gave it away 😅
Thank you! Yeah the rain was a bit annoying! But it worked out in the end!
@@militaryevents107 the thing is, I'm long way away and barely noticed the transitions. Never been there, so brain thinks-- "oh that was a little shower. Wimbledon microclimates"
Yes, cleverly done wasn't it? Drum Majors in Bearskins for a few seconds. Also the crossing the road bit. Well spotted
Bela marcha e apresentação musical desde o Brasil!
Maravilhoso espetáculo musical de Londres para o mundo. Inesquecível. ❤💥👍👩👨❤💥👍👩👨"
just an insane amount of work involved . The music not so much because it's rehashed constantly, but organization and drills.
It must drive the Directors of music of the bands mad getting the mix and timing of the various pieces Wright. The Trooping not so much as much
Of the music is played in fixed points and doesn't vary such as the Regimental slow and Quick marches and Les Huganaut at the beginning and The Grenadiers Slow march when the King's Colour is being trooped through the ranks
❤❤❤❤
Is it me or did they all step out a bit brisker when they played 'Birdcage Walk' @ 03:11?
I love you
Nobody on this planet does this better than us so glad I'm a brit
Molt bé felicitats.
Every time I lay down and try to take a nap these guys go right past my bedroom window...
💎♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Excellent video thank you very much. I just wondering how you can film from this angle and follow the band all the way into the horse guard
England you had a great Queen beatles and calm policemen
Excellent video, but orb&sceptre? When?
The last few days I think the cornets sound more like traditional cornets rather than like trumpets. Have new cornets been issued?
Hi daveleadbeater7652, I'm very happy to be told that I'm wrong, but I think it is unlikely that new cornets, of a different model, would have been issued "en bloc", and that, even if they had been, it is unlikely that this on its own would account for the difference in sound. I think the reality is a combination of several factors. Players of brass instruments, perhaps more so than some types of instruments, can vary their sound depending on the style of music, the occasion and context, and the kind of emotions that are to be elicited from the listener. The way the piece is written, and scored between the various instruments, will have a bearing. Also where the different instruments are positioned in the band, and from what direction they are recorded, will make a difference. I think some instruments are more "directional", than others - for example I'd say that a trombone is extremely directional. With the first march, as an example, to me it sounds much more "choral" in style than most military marches - for example the harmonies in the "loud trombone passage" (I'm sure there'll be technical term!) starting at 01:21 . Yet another variable is the context of the other types of instruments playing at the time. For example, if most of the woodwinds aren't playing because it's pouring with rain, then in relative terms the cornets might sound less "brassy" because there isn't such a contrast with some of the woodwind sounds as there would normally be.
I hope my "ramble" makes some sense!

WHAT A CAREER, SERGEANT CYBAL PLAYER IN THE BAND! WHERE TO NEXT, PROGRESS TO THE TRIANGLE?
That cymbal player will either play all percussion instruments, or play another instrument and has just been tasked with this for this event. To add to that, to play cymbals properly in a ,arching band can be very difficult!
They round up all the "shorter" members and placed them in the middle. :)
Drum majors in state dress
I wonder which member of the Royal Family was present for the Drum Majors to be in Household uniform as opposed to Home Service uniform like the redt of the bands
Me too, but the Lord Mayor of London is also entitled to that honour as I believe he helped fund the state dress of the Guards shortly after the Restoration of the King
Oh great mucic, marching , and bear hats !!!( Sorry for the bears.)
Some serious 'busking' going on there at 8:42, you don't often hear that with the guards it has to be said! Monster on soprano, great sound but it's not written in the music :-)
The name of last tune please? 🙏
Did you notice that policeman having a little dance?
Massed bands of the foot guards regiments with Irish guards London Scottish army cadet force
They're moving too fast to do the actual counting, but this does look like 76 trombones. 🤔😇😂
What is the 1st march tittle
No Orb and Sceptre
It must be very difficult playing an instrument with a sword strapped to your side
One of the perks of being a Warrant Officer
I struggle to believe the quality of music whilst they march frantically!
I think you will find all Foot Guards Bands are there hence the 5 drum majors
Impressive band, but I can’t imagine how much $ “The Crown “ spends annually on all the different groups and their respective instruments and uniforms. I mean this is just 1 band, and as we all saw during the (KINGS CORONATION) they had dozens of bands. It begs the question “tung in check “ do they have anyone who is trained to fight?😮
all the people in the band go through the same training as the ones in the guards, and they are trained medics i think as well!
The massed bands are just that. This "Band" are the Regimental bands of the Grenadiers (white plume) Coldstream (Red plume) Scots (no plume), Irish (blue plume) and Welsh (white over green over white). All bands mentioned irrespective of Regiment in the Army are indeed duel rolled as stretcher bearers. The corps of drums and pipes and drums within the Food Guards are the Guns platoon of individual Foot Guard btns

Not as good as HM Royal Marines but no band is.
Perchè quando vedo questa roba inglese mi viene da andare al cesso ?
You don't have to listen to it, you can bugger off and do something else 😂
