Closest I gotten to "horn" was my toy trumpet - "stolen" from me on Christmas morning - not sure I've forgiven them yet (parents trying to sleep) - and recorder... so can only imagine. Add to that the "adaptations," and that they are relying solely on breath control and the skill is breathtaking - if you'll excuse the pun. Love to all.

What people need to understand, is humans added valves to brass instruments to make them easier to play (yes, even in trombones). In order to change the pitch, the player has to extremely carefully change the shape of their lips, how tightly they're pressing them together, and how hard they're blowing, (which is collectively called embouchure). To play like these four horsemen did was outstanding. Bravo Zulu!

For those who don't know it, army bandsmen aren't just musicians. In battle they act as medics. Those medals they wear are earned. Their job in peace and war isn't easy. Same with cooks, they get shot and blown-up too. Contrary to popular belief they are respected by arms soldiers.

@captainscarlett Some real war lessons: My father, who was sucked in WW2 as a 17 (seventeen) years old soldier, during the war wore 2 warring uniforms and in spring 1945 was dressed up in a third one, taught me a lesson he learned the hard way: "If there would be a war ... " (No it won't, why would it be, laughed I, but he never laughed nor was he light-hearted as far as the war is concerned) - "If there would be a war, stick close to the kitchen. Peel potatoes, wash pots; medals and ranks are connected with nothing but death and destruction. What every army protects the most is their kitchen. In case of losing the battle, soldiers are punished in a more or less cruel manner, you peel potatoes dressed in a different uniform." said my wise father many times. So YES, cooks (and potato peelers!) are both loved and respected by arms soldiers. As for "during the war (he) wore 2 warring uniforms" - for "zaraćene" online dictionary keeps giving me only "warring", but when I translate it back in my language it gives me something like "war uniforms". What I wanted to emphasize is his belonging (bc of uniforms he was put in) to the two warring powers, Axis and Allies. 3rd uniform he was put in - or it was put on (him) - was stuff half of Europe wore when it was given to the Communist block. He was never given a choice of the uniform he wears, nor could he go (as a healthy male) through the war ununiformed, just like the majority of Europeans in WWs. I haven't heard of a book or a film presenting some of a zillion refusals to harm people wearing warring uniforms, and we all know that in a war there's a death penalty for "deserters", bravest of the brave, actually the only ones that should get war medals (together with the defenders, of couse).

I totally adored this performance. And way to go to the "Superman" to wear the tights--- BTW looks great( I am now a personal fan) !!!. After trying a bugle, a trumpet, a valve trombone, and a French Horn, I took up the tuba in Junior High. All I can say is that these musicians are awesome!!!

Enjoyed the musical humor and expertise.

As a life-long trumpet player who began by first teaching himself to play a bugle, I am truly impressed. On a bugle, you only have 5 notes to work with, but make the instrument long enough (such as the one Superman was playing) and you get a full chromatic scale without the use of valves or holes. Truly amazing--the physics of sound. This skit demonstrated all this superbly--while also demonstrating that military bands are not confined to playing just classical and march music. As for silliness, as a US Marine I've watched several boot camp graduations. I love it as the band marches out all 'prim and proper' (as all expect a military band to be), stops in front of the reviewing stands, then breaks ranks and goes crazy playing jazz music with all sorts of silly antics. Then, with a wave of the drum major's impressive baton, all become straight-laced, dignified Marines again, and march away in formation playing Semper Fidelis. Much fun.

About five years ago in the early Spring when it was still chilly here in Dallas, I was to play Taps for a mid-day service. When I took my assigned station as the funeral party arrived, though the temperature wasn't cold, I was facing directly into the wind that was blowing at about 15-20 mph. Less than 10 minutes later, when it came time for me to play, my cheeks had 'frozen' enough that I completely botched my performance. It was embarrassing. I should've had the honor guard play the recording.

This is funny. One doesn't expect a dignified military organization like the Royal Marines to do something like this. I remember that in the early seventies, my dad and I drove from Sacramento to Oakland, to the Coliseum (well, Dad drove; I was 12 or 13) to see the Scots Guards, Welsh Guards, or somesuch members of the Household Regiment, and the Pipes and Drums. At one point in the performance, the band had finished playing and was lined up in a broad V-formation when the bandmaster strolled over to one of the tubas, reached into the bell, and pulled out a neon-yellow Oakland A's baseball; everyone clapped and cheered. Then, he reached into the tuba again, pulled out an Oakland A's pennant, and held it up for everyone to see! This was during the time that the A's were doing their world champion three-peat. Upon seeing the pennant, everyone clapped and cheered even louder! I certainly had not expected a British Army bandmaster to engage in such shenanigans. . .
