Slow March and back to the North end with the band. United States Marine Drum and Bugle Corps, Commandant's Own. President's Own, United States Marine Band.
My grandpa was Col Crawford and I grew up at the barracks every Friday until he retired and this was always my favorite part when they did the criss cross marching.
They probably weren't good enough to make it in the Drum & Bugle Corps, because they probably didn't know they should step off with their military left, not the one their momma taught one. ERRAH!!!
The way the Drum Major is handling his mace is a copy of what British Drum Majors do when parading in front of the Queen. (by putting the tip of the mace on the ground and moving it in a circle on the march). In Britain, it's known as a State Walk.
There’s a difference between the president‘s own and the Comandantes own so just get them mess up since it’s pretty obvious by the drum major. A mass band is essentially what is shown in the last few seconds of the video where there is two drum major leading.
I saved this video, because my attempt to record this with my phone didn't work very well on August 27, 2021, when Sgt Eric Carr (EMCproductions) was playing. I really love the sound of Scotland the Brave, and the slow march with The Commandant's Own is so amazing.
The videos is great especially the song selection.I would like to find out the title of the first song and if possible the music sheet for the various parts.
Both of these units are older than the Army Fife and Drum Corps. While the Army unit wears uniforms of the Revolutionary period, the Marine Band was founded in 1798. The use of the rope drums goes with the traditional red of the uniform of all 3 units, contrasting the blue of the American uniform, as musicians wore the opposite color of their unit.
When the Commandant's Own performs in a more official/ceremonial capacity, they utilize old style field drums and marching bass drums. Other times, when they're showing off the total Drum and Bugle Corps capacity, they utilize modern drum corps-style drums such as high-tension marching snares, quintuple tenor drums(quints/tenors), and marching bass drums. The President's Own only uses field drums and bass drums during this ceremony and during the Presidential Inauguration(that's just to my knowledge, I'm sure they march elsewhere). Here, they use old fife and drum corps-style drums in order to better mix with the song selection, which are more traditional marches.
It is Rule Britannia which I find ironic because to be free from the yoke of British rule was what George Washington and other fought for during the War of Independence in 1774, a war that led to - among others - the establishment of the US Marine Corps.
I am sure with a name like Jose Oliveros you had fuckall to do with the war of independence , as most folks on both sides were from British stock, and with a surname like yours you had fuckall to do with it again.
Of all the hundreds of performances I did with The Commandant's Own, Field Crew for the Friday Evening Parades at 8th&I were among my favorite.
Segment 2:31/4:04 a well-known German Military tune
My grandpa was Col Crawford and I grew up at the barracks every Friday until he retired and this was always my favorite part when they did the criss cross marching.
2:30 Yorck'scher Marsch (March Of The Yorck Corps) by Ludwig von Beethoven.
I played soprano bugle in this unit for 8 yrs. Slow march, ugh!
How could anyone not enjoy and marvel at this performance ?
They probably weren't good enough to make it in the Drum & Bugle Corps, because they probably didn't know they should step off with their military left, not the one their momma taught one. ERRAH!!!
Not as good as the Guards Bands of the Brigade of Guards. Septem Juncta in Uno!
@@youtubeaccount5738 I disagree the best military band of all time are the Royal Marines.
@@Dischingo Nah, they can't beat the bands front row of trombones. 🤙🤙
I am definitely proud to be a retired US MARINE !
OOH RAH SEMPER FI

scotland the brave to minstrel boy to march of the yourck corps
Very nice introductory notes at the beginning before they started marching - intro from 'Bluebells of Scotland'
Welcome to America where we embrace other nationalities!!!

I was in attendance at this great performance with Vince & Velma Loy.

Second song is :The Croppy Boy" an Irish tune used during the Civil War. Third song is a German march.
Yorkscher Marsch by L v Beethoven.
Not croppy boy... Begins Scotland the Brave, interrupted by The Minstrel Boy, continues with Scotland the Brave, and concludes with Yorkscher Marsch.
The videos is great especially the song selection.I would like to find out the title of the first song and if possible the music sheet for the various parts.
The first song is the USMC Drum and Bugle Corps' version of "Scotland the Brave". :)
scotland the brave , the minstrel boy and the york,scher marsch when the band strikes up.
German Yorkshire March at 3:00?
What song is this?
First is Scotland the brave then the minstrel boy Scotland the brave again and finally yorckscher march
Similar to British Guards Bands, but not as good. Mace drills are similar too, especially the "State Walk".
what's with the old army old fife and drum corps style drums i mean not criticising them sounds better with both but just these sound just as good

What's the piece at the very beginning ?
It is Rule Britannia which I find ironic because to be free from the yoke of British rule was what George Washington and other fought for during the War of Independence in 1774, a war that led to - among others - the establishment of the US Marine Corps.
Scotland the Brave not Rule Britannia!!!!
I am sure with a name like Jose Oliveros you had fuckall to do with the war of independence , as most folks on both sides were from British stock, and with a surname like yours you had fuckall to do with it again.
If you want to be technical, at the VERY beginning, the introductory notes are from the 'Bluebells of Scotland'
when they slow march like that,it just like they are the British marchband.it also just like trooping the colour ceremony but in american ways.
The entire ceremony is a British style parade with modifications.
