Eh not the best drum line on the planet. But man that was a technically challenging book they had

Was lucky enough to see that performance live. No wonder they are the ONLY non-military group invited to play at the Edinburgh Tattoo. Remarkable stuff!

A few civilian pipe bands have made it to Edinburgh. The New Zealand Invercargille and Caledonian pipe bands have been a part of the massed pipes and drums. In otherwords if you are good enough group you can make it to the Tattoo.

They are not. There are planty of non military drum groups at the tattoo

Von allen Drum Corps die ich bisher im Internet fand, sind die Schweizer meine Favoriten, beste!

- Where do they play next week? - Sorry, Top Secret...

The sole reason for being at the Edinburgh Tattoo this year. Brilliant! x

6 years Later. Still Goosebumps. Insane Top Secret. Insane

Top Secret takes no prisoners. They have what it takes to make their audience their fans want more. Not just showmanship and cool moves they display those drum sounds that are clean accurate and all of their shows have a beginning a middle thats adds and adds and then for the grand finale they provide solid musicianship. Like them or Not I would really vote them as the most entertaining drum line out there.

In a swiss military orchestra Drums are always in the first line. The Drums and the fifres (flute) were the instrument of our ancestor mercenary, the swiss mercenaries were the only "army" who played music in battles.

+Sirijan Wittmer; Only army? Rubbish! The Scottish regiments always marched into battle with the pipe-bands leading. Napoleon was reported to fear them the most since his men didn't always stand firm awaiting their nerve-racking approach which could be heard 30 miles away getting nearer and nearer at the 'quick march' step. Please detail the famous battles where Swiss mercenaries played any significant role. Defending the Pope in Rome hardly counts. You are watching the Edinburgh Military Tattoo. Didn't you know that during the Tattoo, pipe bands from every corner of the world are honouring the enduring musical influence of the fearsome Scottish warriors?

GSSkipper I mean in central Europe a long time ago. The time before Napoleon and all of those stuff. when the Olds kings of France were afraid of the swiss mercenary. The Flags, The drums and the fifres are in our traditions. Sure it's not very know because people don't have interest in the Switzerland culture.

A long time ago? Perhaps we could include the time when the Romans, at the height of their power throughout Europe, sent an army to invade and conquer Scotland. It vanished with not one survivor. The Romans then built two walls to try to keep the Scots from invading England. Also, if you saw Mel Gibson's film 'Brave Heart' (95% true), you will have witnessed the defeat of a large English army by the Scots for the fist time after 300 years of almost total European dominance.

I never tire of seeing Top Secret perform. Perfection. It's amazing what these people achieve. I would die a happy man if I saw this live. Stunning.

I just watched that and if I watched it again 50 times, I don't think I'd be able comprehend all of what was going on there! I've been playing the drums for well over 50 years and I still can't get my eye to catch all of what my ears are hearing. The Bass Drummers are incredible as well. They work so perfectly in sync that they get some of the coolest drum rolls from those things with only the use of a single left or right hand movement. However, the other bass drum players are each doing the same thing but at precisely a beat before, or after. The result is some very cool drum rolls that would be difficult with two hands by one drummer, let alone, one hand by many! Just OUTSTANDING! My wife was an Aggie graduate and used to love to go see the drum core exhibitions. I wish she was alive to see this one. It would have certainly been the best she's ever seen, I'm sure. Rich

Saw these guys perform at the virginia international tattoo in 2015 and that was the best performance at the tattoo ive ever seen to this day

Fantastic!!!! Everyone who played drums knows how important coordination is, but these are many, many levels above the usual ..... thanks to you all the great drummers in this youtube video, with high regard

The choreography, the discipline, and the absolute attention to the finest detail, added up to perfection (even with the dropped drumstick). Loved it. Could watch them for hours! ❤️

I've been around drum lines since 1958, and this is the most ( excuce me) fucking unbelievable thing I have ever witnessed. the part where it looked like they turned their sticks into fifes is just just I don't know. I can't find a word, whatever is more awesome than awesome itself. that's how I would describe top secret. TOP SECRET!!!

Extraordinary discipline, rehearsal, and commitment! These men are an inspiration to musicians everywhere.

OUTSTANDING!!! Keep on!!!! Keep on!!!! They make all of us Drum Corps people proud!!!

The most brilliant drumming you will ever hear it sends goosebumps down my spine every time. Bravo.

love the play fighting, really good showmanship, looking for more recent performance

Coming from a land famous for its precision watches, this level of perfection is to be expected.

Their show reminds me of the Marines from Henderson Hall's sword show at Torchlight Tattoo on the tidal basin in Washington, DC. Such a tight group! Not only is their drumming close to absolute perfection, their theatrics are charming and unique! Their fife playing's not half bad either. I would've given my eye teeth to see this show live. Absolutely phenomenal!!!!

These guys are so clean!! Every move is precisely done!! So much practice had to go into this!!

Absolutely amazing! ......Watching the Top Secret Drum Corps from Switxerlan I felt totally ‘hypnotised’ such skill and discipline and as they perform they just get better.....WOW!

That was freakin Amazing!!!!!! ❤

Laverdad. Nunca jamas yo visto. Soy extranjera. Muchisima gracias por ese espetaculo

They put the "close" in close order drill... with drums. Astounding choreography. God only knows how many hours of practice it takes, to reach this level of precision...

Absolutely love these guys. I'm from Pennsylvania, USA and Top Secret puts our drum line to shame. We got nothing on these guys.
