I’d love to see these guys do a performance with the 1st Marine Division Band

beautiful.

So wonderful to hear and so alive !!! Beautiful military band !

Such a happy anthem!

Long Live the Commonwealth. Down with the Traitors!

Good one Darwin 3.

As a visitor to this beautiful land I say: i thought they screwed up by not picking this song as an anthem but! Now anyone can sing it any time without any feeling of formality!

We do lots of stuff like this, I received a rising sun medal from a sergeant in darwin for leading a drumline platoon.

Best regards !! From your old allies .. Malaysia ...

Well, perhaps here is a strange story to tell. After Tobruk had been retaken, Our Aussie Brothers sang "Po Kare kare-ana" in Maori to us, and in reply, the Kiwis (ANZAC, as ARE the Aussies) Sang "Waltzing Matilda" both of which were regarded as being MORE than the National Anthem of Australia, just as "Now is the Hour" and "E Hine E" (or, ' Hine E hine' {how the Song/Lullaby is titled depends upon where you come-from in NZ}) are regarded as being MORE than the National Anthem of New Zealand. Curiously, none of the 'Official Histories' record this, in either Nation. Yet it remains that I have been gifted this information by both Australians and New Zealanders who were present at that time.

You miss a lot when hearing it on parade through a camera though.

What version is this, what arranger?

Pity about the sound cutting out at the end

I heard a recorded version of Waltzing Matilda for military band decades ago up in Banff. I don't know if it was a British, Australian or Canadian Band. It was the best I had ever heard. This version is pretty weak. Somewhere there exists a top-notch military band version in some British or Australian band library that was written probably somewhere between 1900 and 1940 which is going to waste while this second rate versions are being used.

Augusta Wind it was the new zealand army band

not to insult Darwin or anything I think the army command there might not have that much to do of late. nice music though. outside of the alarm caused by the June 1941 engagement between the Americans and Japanese how many post 1900 serious problems have there been there regarding invasions and such?

Nice, but we need to watch our weight, and what is it with the big cat fur I wonder?

It's tradition that the bass drummer wears a leopard skin. Though they have stopped doing it because someone thinks it's related to slavery.

Why waste energy with that excessive arm swinging when marching?

Such a beautiful song…I don’t care what the backstory is about it it’s just a wonderful march.
