Change of guards at Amalienborg in Copenhagen

- This is the change of guards at Amalienborg, which is a palace and the royal residence in Copenhagen. The change of guards takes place everyday and lasts for an hour. Here are the first 16 minutes. During the ceremony, people are allowed to stand only in certain areas of the square and they can't move around. In my case, I was in the centre of the square and as it was quite crowded, it wasn't easy to follow the march the whole time. This video was taken in April 2014.

Smart set of lads, just like their British counterparts. Had the pleasure of seeing them whilst in Denmark.
Respect from United Kingdom. 🇩🇰🇬🇧
Yes respect the dansk guards
At the beginning of the video, from 0:00 to 0:41, The Band of The Royal Life Guards can be heard performing the famous British march 'Blue Devils' composed by Charles Williams.
From 3:15 to 7:17, the Band performs the Danish march 'Kong Gustaf VI Adolf's Honnørmarch' composed by Kai Verner Nielsen. The closest English translation of the march title would be the 'King Gustaf VI Adolf's Salute March'.
The march was dedicated to HM King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden whose reign was from 1950 to 1973. He was the grandfather and immediate predecessor of HM King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, the current reigning King of Sweden. Incidentally, King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden was also the grandfather of HM Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, the current reigning Queen of Denmark.
The Band performs the 17th century Danish 'Fanemarch' from 8:48 to 9:14. Unfortunately, the identity of the composer is unknown.
From 10:08 to 10:42, the Band play the Danish 'Amalienborg March' composed by Richard Lindebro. They play the 'Dronning Margrethe den II's Parademarch' composed by Arne Ole Stein from 11:50 to 12:19.
Following the Band's performance of 'Blue Devils', the Corps of Drums of The Royal Life Guards can be heard performing the march 'Les Volontaires' composed by the French composer Olivier Métra between 1:25 and 2:20 while they then perform the Danish patriotic song 'Den Tapre Landsoldat' from 2:21 to 3:14.
Thanks so much, the first song, I have been looking for the name of it for ages!
@@smudgerbugg You are most welcome! It is really great to know that you were able to solve your march mystery through my post! Thank you very much for your kind words of gratitude!
@@MsBritishGrenadiers No problem. Where do you find out what all these musics are?
@@smudgerbugg Audio recordings of all the marches that The Royal Life Guards Band perform in this video are available on You Tube. Over the years, I had listened to all these recordings before seeing this video.
Military Music Fan we dont want swedish stuff here
La garde Danoise est vraiment une garde exemplaires .
L' uniforme bleu et noir et juste magnifique et ke bearskin est juste pas en dessous des yeux se qui leur permet une meilleure vue ( contrairement aux gardes anglais ) .
J' adore , je voudrai la même garde pour mon manoir plus tard .
Vicomte de Salines votre manoir?
Amazing music performances!
That is one alert police woman - constantly scanning the crowd and shifting position from time to time and not at all distracted by the pageantry going on behind her. Good job lieutenant (two diamonds is lieutenant, right?)!
@reyol I thought it was a man by the body language? Not a happy chappy.
2 pips on shoulders equal senior officer. the police in denmark does not have military rank
Shes a assistent, equal to a Corporal.
Que significa el sombrero creí que solo lo usaban los ingleses ? Saludos a todos desde México 🙋
Bonjour ! J’aimerais comprendre une chose , j’ai toujours connais la garde royale danoise en rouge et sur plusieurs vidéo je les vois en noir
They are dressed in red on special occasions ( Galla dress ). That is probably why, you have mostly seen them in red!? On their regular day to day duties, they are dressed as you can see in this video.
can anyone provide me with the name of the march tune at 11.50 ...thank you.....marty
louislungbubble It is "Dronning Margethe II's parade march" by Arne Ole Stein
In english: Queen Margrethe II's parade march
fisk7aal i found this out some time since but thank you in any case fish7aal me ol mate>>>its a good march >>>>>>>>marty
Well, how about them. Looking smart and crisp. Thank God, we Americans have no sovereign to protect but God. Still, these military men look great.
and you are a classic example of how important it is with general education and schooling. without this one has a very limited view of the world outside one's nose tip.
Americans protect God?
@568843daw ???? Have you NEVER ONCE seen the security apparatus surrounding the US Presidents?!?!! ( and even the former Presidents!! ). A few days ago ( March 15th 2024 ) Obama was here in Danmark. And he still had special security protection this many years after he retired.( paid for by YOU!! ).
There are so many embassies in copenhagen so it sucks when a flag of another country shows up
Det kunne være fedt hvis alle de regimenter i livgarden ik havde det samme tøj på
Hvor mange regimenter tror du der er i livgarden?😳
Der er et lille hint i navnet "uniform"...

- These Very Bored MosT Than OTher Euro CounTries Honour PresenTaTion Guards...~
It’s an agony trying to watch this!! Try camera handling skills
The moves are a little bit unspectacular in comparison with the British guards. They are more powerful! Those guards here look like bored :-)
No not bored at all... Just not bothered with unnecessary stuff.
well during world war 2, the actually fired on German invaders! I think a few were killed before orders to surrender were given. Seemingly toy soldiers against the Wehrmacht's automatic weapons! The weren't bored then.
A few differences that you may be unaware off. Danes, rifles locked and loaded, more ammo in the leather bag on right hip. Brits. Unloaded rifles, i.e. clubs. The drill is entirely functional, arrive in column of march, transition to company front, advance to receive colors. Nothing is done for show. And the regiment is 2 years older than the Grenadier Guards and began wearing bearskins 10 years earlier.

Danish Royal Life Guards founded 1658.
British Grenadier Guards lineage goes back to 1654.
British Coldstream Guards formed 1650.
@@Wotsitorlabart Except not as Royal regiments, and since the Grenadier Guards rank ahead of the Coldstreams because of the Royal designation, I am just being consistent. Minor trivia, the Danes have worn the bearskin since 1805, the Brits only since Waterloo 1815.
Protecting the biggest Liar in the Country !
And protecting your right to think so.
