The BEST Military Band in the World.

They are the best, they look the best and they know it. So they should because the regiment they represent are the finest marines there are and they surely do them justice.

The bands of the UK's elite hardcore Royal Marines Commandos are at the top of their game. The quality of the music is absolutely incredible and very very very loud, all performed with precision marching like toy-soldiers :)

Greetings young lady.Beating Retreat is a military ceremony dating to 17th-century England and was first used to recall nearby patrolling units to their castle. In WW2 my dad was in the Royal Marines and part of The Burma Star Association . You must have a look at Top Secret Drum Corps - The Bands of HM Royal Marines. The Top Secret Drum Corps are from Switzerland.Cheers and stay safe young lady.

💯% Precision and these guys are not some Tourist attraction, they are some of our elite, front line soldiers who have been involved in some of our Countries most hard fought Battles. Per Mare Per Terram.

That is just the Band of the Royal Marines going to the venue. The actual Beating the Retreat is a whole spectacle and pretty amazing too. Check out Beating the Retreat 2022 on KZread 👍 LOTS of ladies in the RM band too - including the front rank (line) of drums😊👍

Any Royal Marines Band (and there are four) is without doubt the very best military band in the world. And I mean bar none. Put them together and you have this spectacle. Their musicianship is superb but their precision in drill and dress is out of this world. Just to add: That drum break was done by 48 Buglers / Drummers (12 across the road 4 deep) in perfect unison on a very complicated pattern. Utterly superb.

I agree in everything you say except I've never seen them 12 abreast. Normally 5, 6 10 and even 20 but nevertheless the best in the world.

I love your reaction. As a young man, I marched behind these wonderful bandsmen, and I felt as if I could march for ever. I am now 82, and walk with a stick, but I still wish I was there! Bless them all, and you too.

Beating Retreat is a military ceremony dating to 17th-century England and was first used to recall nearby patrolling units to their castle. it was originally played on a drum, 5:05 is beating the retreat the rest of the music is Royal Marine standard tunes, this will explain more about the Royal Marine Band kzread.info/dash/bejne/jIiAo8ONmdmperA.html its a subscribe and like for you from me I'm so pleased that someone else appreciates the sheer brilliance of this performance and they are marching whilst they do it as well!

Always a joy to be here, thank you for your laugh: you need to bottle it and sell it!

That's our Royal Marine Band, they practice for many many hours

This is not the Beating The Retreat. This is the Marines Bands ad Marines/ Navy Guard ( marching at the rear )marching from Wellington Barracks in Bird Cage Walk near Buckingham Palace to the Horse Guards Parade Ground where the ceremony takes place, The actual ceremony has a separate video on YT kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4Chj8STcrTLnLA.html Best Military band in the world. The Royal Marines and Royal Navy make up the Senior Service in the UK

I just love your energy ❤ you're positive warm attitude makes the grumpiest of people smile 😂 me being one of those. I hope you enjoy our military band retreat.

That was truly a joy to watch!

as a former member of the RN there is no better band, when they play Hearts of Oak you grow by ten feet

I could listen to this all day and every day. I hope cgarles continues how they were then and doesn't 'relax' the monarchy

Hi Island Girl you really need to check out the trooping of the colour ceremony for the British Army showing off their skills on the parade ground

Trooping the colour is best thing you ll see and never get over it i watched many over the year its fantastic

I like the precision of the Royal Marines bands and the symphonic quality of the Foot Guards bands. Both excellent.

We brits are great at pomp and ceremony!!!

O get goosebumps listening to them, my dad had several vinyl records of the Royal Marines so whenever I hear them it reminds me if my dad. They are immaculate in their timing.

Nobody seems to do this ort of thing better than us Brits Good video 👍 island girl has flow stay safe

Can you think of a time when some one said we will put together a band .pomp no one do it better than us

Lovely to see your bright smile. Watching a video from you is like watching the sun come out!

Watched beating of the retreat many times. love it . This time your smile made it even better.

When you remember that they are all fully trained serving soldiers

I used to be a percussionist in this band and do this gig every year.

Greetings Island Girl, I Love your appreciation for our nation & culture, your laughter is infectious & to answer the question of how many members of the the band? 200+ ! 😉 They're brilliant, you're right they are on precision with every beat, they have to be because they are a Royal band, get it wrong & you're fired! They rehearse every day and night, as well as break up into smaller groups for charity events and other appointed occasions. Have a wonderful weekend, love from London UK 🇬🇧❤🌹

They are on their way to Horse Guards Parade to perform the old ceremony of Beating Retreat. I saw it once. It was wonderful. When the ceremony is over they will return to Barracks again, the band will play, they will march in perfect step and look as fresh as they do now - even if they are tired or suffering exhaustion from the heat. They are a credit to the UK. I feel great pride in our Military.

Island Girl with another reaction vedio and am here for it all.

Hello again to you, Island Girl. Hope you and all your family are staying safe and well. Watching your reaction to these exceptional musicians was utterly enchanting and it brightened my day. One of the marches played was "Birdcage Walk". Thank you again for a wonderful reaction. Blessings to you all from Ireland.

Damn, we rock! 🇬🇧

It's the combination of and contrast between the absolutely mechanically precise marching and the superb musicianship.

Hearing our fantastic Bandies always take me back to the day my Son's Pass out day at Lympston 5 yrs ago, last year he was part of the procession for our lovely late Queen, he was due to do the Coronation but he's out at sea instead

Wow amazing beautiful

I you noticed that the drummers do everything from memory? They don't have music sheets.

count the drum majors and you have the number of bands and what you are watching is done by practice lots of practice I know I used to play myself

It's been said we are the best sort of thing but that's for others to decide I must admit there pretty good it takes a lot of practice glad you enjoyed it love your reaction I'm in Somerset england you might be interested in the isle of Avalon just a few miles from here it's a special place and is about king Arthur and the knights of the round table very best wishes to you and your family xx

This video is ample proof that the Royal Marines bands are the best in the world.

Scary stuff...if you heard this sound 200 years ago you were probably about to get your ass kicked by redcoats...or in the case of beating the retreat, you had already had your ass kicked and it was time for bed...sleep tight.

There are five bands reunited.

British discipline....one of the sounds that truly should make a Brit head and shoulders proud. Musical class, military precision....but make no mistake.....very, very good troops....best in the world

Here for another great reaction video

Thanks for reviewing my video. Can i place a link for donate action so fans can support me for high costs and to improve my video's?

Hey Island Girl! You know you are amazing! I have a suggestion for your consideration. I could say a lot but I don't want to bias your views in any way. It's a major issue, it's contemporary, and it relates back to some of the themes that you have been exploring. Just in case you are not aware, please consider doing a video about what happened to Sarah Jane Comrie.

If you think they are good at that? You should see them fighting.

The best of the best long before TC or Maverick his alta ego..

They are not Royal Marines. They are one of the Royal Marines Bands. These guys aren't doing the fighting and the RMC aren't playing musical instruments. They are separate.

Every single one knows how to use a rifle with lethal accuracy, & has to refresh frequently. As bandsmen/women - yes, they are expected to be non-combatant & normally non-frontline roles. But many have earned high military gallantry awards for their bravery under fire, rescuing injured soldiers...
