A rare Trombone section to see. 3 Bass Trombones and 2 Tenor Trombones rather than the normal 3 tenor and 3 bass.

@@semajbronson21 Very unusual indeed, but if I look and listen closely, only the middle trombone player plays the bass trombone part. Normal trombone section usually 4 tenor-trombones and 1 bass.

Great Video! Nice to see the Royal Regiment of Scotland mixing up the Tunes and putting ones you don't normally hear.
An absolutely beautiful video with clear explanations about who and what is being played! Nice details and very good sound, despite the strong wind! Beautiful tribute to John Williams with Olympic Spirit for his 90th birthday, played by the Band of the Welsh Guards! Thanks for this video!

Thank you, I’m glad you think so - it’s always a struggle with the wind. Indeed, a fitting tribute to John Williams and also the current Winter Olympics that’s happening!
Another terrific video thanks 😊 both bands sounded great 👍

A very enjoyable video. The bands were magnificent musically. Me being Scottish I was particularly pleased with the RRS Band performance in London.
Awsome video great bands 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴
One of your best videos. Thank you . Great to see the RRS band. I played Melodies of Scotland years ago...nice to hear it again.
Many many thanks for this, Not see the Band for the Royal Regiment of Scotland for a while. Fow a while I thought they were playing Westering Home but it wasn't!
Geest bands, thanks for this video!
A really superb video. Both bands play music respective to their repertoire and historical backgrounds. So lots of Guards and Highland related music. Nice to hear "Royal Edinburgh" and "Impressions On a Scottish Air" by RR of S Band. Perhaps next we see this band at Windsor?
Best was @ 2:08 with the white horse marching in time to music and so obviously enjoying it!
Great video! Looks like WG band had a fill in from the HAC. Also great slow marching from the RRS Band drum major, very sharp. Glad the RRS band still exists and wasn't reorganised into another BAB. Looks like they use two different kind of harness for their side drums as well, very unusual.

Each prefers a different harness which is good that the Band allows it
A very nice video Military band everywhere! Sorry for the delay of my message. But a great video indeed!
the sound is very good in the first part;
Great bands!!
When I need to clear up my mind I wath this kind of vedio.
A rare Trombone section to see. 3 Bass Trombones and 2 Tenor Trombones rather than the normal 3 tenor and 3 bass.
Looks as though the Drum Major leading the Welsh Guards is the Irish Guards D/M. Now this Drum Major is extremely smart and has a great military bearing. Once again, superb music from these Guards musicians.

@SuperNutkin Good observation. The drum major in question is Gareth Chambers, Senior Drum Major, Household Division.
You don't hear "The Machine Gun Guards" very often.
They played the song dedicated to princess Diana by Elton John
AT 0207 Princes Street please, there is no Princess Street in Edinburgh
Great music played by the RRS Band. Their Drum Major is extremely smart but it looks as though he's sort of "dancing" when marching, which looks unusual to say the least. However, I don't mean to be rude but he's probably putting TOO MUCH effort into marching. (something I never thought possible) ..... Anyway, everyone on parade look extremely smart.

Lol that's swagger lad.
Why do amateur photographers always concentrate only on the band. The troops marching behind are just as important

This channel is dedicated to Military Bands so the focus will always be on the military musicians. However I have quite often seen footage of soldiers marching behind the bands in other videos on the channel.
It won't be long and the Drum Major will be female. They are creeping in. OMG. Veteran NZ.
