Windsor Castle, 11 November 2021
Although I have never served in the forces I have played in a few bands.
I am deeply impressed by nearly all the video's,, especially this one.
Simply wonderful.
At the 1:30 mark.. pay attention to the older gent --standing in front of his wheelchair. He has several medals pinned to his left chest
Fabulous music.
The policeman felt belittled there. Thank you for the video. It’s such subjects that make me proud to be British. 🇬🇧
My pleasure 🙏
Judging by what they're carrying the Police seem to be doing the real guarding!
Fantastic sound, superb bass drummer !
mike nice to see my old corps REME changing the guard at Windsor Castle. I did 12 years with REME
I really enjoy the "b-roll" footage you include. Your videos are very pleasing to view. cheers!
Thank you ☺️
Awesome video. Taken on Remembrance Day. Lest we forget.
Thank you ☺️
The wonderful British Army Band Colchester as they are called since the cut backs all part of Royal Corp of Army Music who are fine bunch of men and women musicians ,
is that at a civilian band as some of the players look over the serving age of a solider
I liked your video,well done.Keep them coming.👍🇨🇦
Thank you ☺️

We will remember them.
Thanks for sharing great footage of a memorable and enjoyable day! My first time as police guard liaison + one I'll remember 🌹

My pleasure ☺️
0:11 respect❤️🇬🇧💯 0:25
Thank you 🙏
Think the Major is well turned out. In fact both groups are pressing nicely. And the music is fantastic. 🇬🇧🇬🇧👑👑🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great to see some older army musicians .Well done band
Excellent video!
The marches played were,
1) Imperial Echoes
2) General Mitchell
3) Washington Greys
4) Guards Armoured Division
5) Scarlet and Gold
6) Glorious Victory
Delvin another question from Cornwall! Do the senior NCOs use regimental “swagger sticks”(if that’s what they are called), or are they personal items once promoted? Thanks for musical info. Cheers
@@doraldeddy1836 Most NCOs use "Pace Sticks" but occasionally you do see the RSMs using the "Swagger Stick", The "Pace Stick" is used to show that the Person is also a drill instructor, but a "swagger stick" is a show of rank. I presume that a RSM chooses what he wants to use, but I'm not sure on that, as I'm more of an expert on the Bands than the soldiers. I'm sorry that I can't answer your question to the fullest extent! I'm sure someone in the know will tell us!
@@delvinrodriguez3341 thanks Delvin. I know more now than before👍. Thanks again. D
Thank you 🙏
Beautifully turned out. Proud of every one of them.
I love these video's. What amazes me (saw it in your video) is that in The Netherlands where I live (commercial) aircraft are not allowed in the airspace above the Royal Palaces in The Hague. But here in Windsor there is no such rule.
At the same time the Dutch Royals do not have a changing of the guard ceremony, like all other Royal Houses in Europe. So I prefer the Changing of the guard and a few aircraft ;)
some thought that the airspace rules might be changed. Windsor Castle is one of the residences owned by the monarch in person, rather than the state of the the UK.
A really good video - I like this band and nice to see a lady Director of Music marching
clive hughes I agree, British Army Band Colchester has carried its duty with great style and professionalism! The (DoM) is Major Lauren Patritz-Watts she also was the (DoM) of the Band of the Royal Logistics Corps when it existed.
@@delvinrodriguez3341 She needs to learn to swing her arms in a more soldier-like manner - that was a bit lacklustre TBH...
@@Penguin_of_Death if you watch other videos of other bands you'll see that, most (DoM) swing their arms to waist height, Like the (DoM) is doing in this video, I presume it's their style of marching. It looks like how the Foot Guards use to march before they started using the shoulder high arm swing. I personally don't mind the low arm swing, I think everyone has their own style of marching.
Thank you ☺️
Note the "spurs" !
has the officer leading the guard heared the expression chest out chin in
A lot of women in the band, very good. Your videos Lenny are excellent. Greetings from Cordoba Argentina.
Thank you Martin. Greetings from Windsor 🙏
Nice to see Policeman walking in time
would love to see the guards march up to the castle to a few German tunes, a hint to the royal family's past, maybe Prussia glory, old kormaed and panzer laid, just saying that's all.
Very Smart Drum Major.
Major Lauren Petritz-Watts in a middle.
Wow, cool 🙏👍🙏
the female officer marching within the bands ranks is both elegant and smart and could teach a thing ato about marching to some of the officers ive seen in other video clips
She's the Director of Music for the band ....... one of those recently created on the reorganization of military bands in the UK. This one's based in Colchester, I believe, which presumably serves the regiments based in East Anglia.
@Ryan not sure officers are required to swing their arms shoulder high, but in any case, if you note, the officer in question is carrying a sword which would considerably restrict her arm movement.
If I am not wrong, the female officer is a Major?
@@yesyesleung222 that is correct.
Did you ever try to do that while wearing one of those coats??????
Really enjoyed that, I know Windsor very well, but have not visited for many years. Beautiful video, thank you.
My pleasure ☺️
What is the significance of the female officer marching with the band without a musical instrument. Can any tell. me please.
The major is the music director of this army band.
Greetings from St.Thomas Ontario Canada. Another great video thanks for posting every day.
My pleasure ☺️
Is this REME? I guess all guards regiments on duty at Cenotaph
Immaculately turned out, disciplined and professional drum major.
Mechanics who can march......
Which was a regiment band walking on that day?
Excellent stuff mucker.
I live in Windsor, see them all the time, great Video 😊
Hi Sue, I live in Windsor. Thank you, Sue Johns☺️
Just curious, why was one band member not playing an instrument,just marching?
I believe that is the director.
Did the Cybal player have an accident as he seemed to stop playing ?
Well spotted. I assume the left strap came loose as he began playing them flat afterwards. You can hear this at 3.33 as the Bass Drummer looks over. Those straps are generally leather and do wear over time.
Awasome Lenny Windsor 🇬🇧🇬🇧🌷⚘thanks so much
My pleasure Anderson Jacob ☺️
Keep up your good work in fact extremely good videos love them 👮♂️👮♂️👮♂️
Thank you 🙏 ☺️🙏@Marilyn Van Der Erf.
Greetings from Windsor 🎄
@@lennywindsor3820 asowme video great I love it 🖤🖤🖤🖤💚💚💚💚💚💜💜💜💜💙💙💙💙♥️♥️♥️♥️
There is a tall female guard 3rd back row without an instrument, looks to be wearing spurs on her shoes / boots. 😁I see you !
that was utterly brilliant!
Thank you ☺️
Does anyone know why blue, red, and yellow are on the cards?
It is the Royal Corps of Army Music TRF (tactical recognition flash), worn on MTP uniform as well, just like the household division use blue red blue.
@@MilitaryBandsEverywhere Thank you for the information 🙏🤗🙏
Looked and sounded great 👍perfect 🥰 thanks.
Thank you ☺️
Who were the Regiment mounting guard and who were the Regiment dismounting ??
Nice to see my handsome man❤❤
Oh great. May I know which ones?
Thank you for watching 😍
Excellent video presentation.
Thank you 🙏
What regiment is this band from?
Two sisters at 17.47 ?😉
😂😂Yes we are.
@@lennywindsor3820
Thought so ! 👍
Ass always 👍👍✋
Thank you 🙏 ☺️
South African military musician here (trombone). Cudos to the band and I love their playing and drill.
A few observations and questions if I may.
Its interesting to see the DOM marching in the band. Is this only done for changing the guard because there is no salute to be taken or is it so on all parades?
No disrespect but I noticed some older bandsmen on parade. My first assumption is that this might be a territorial band as I assumed your retirement age was around 40-45 or so. Our mandated retirement age is 60 (I'm 55 so I am also that older musician on parade👴😉).
The last parade I did with a rifle was my passing out parade after basic training in 1985 with a HK G3 similar to your old FN SLR - which we also used until the early 80s- ( I think we liberated the G3s from the Portuguese after the de-colinisation of Mozambique and Angola🤷♂️, but they were only used by the SA Air Force in basic training) and we weren't clever enough to figure out a "Change Arms" drill as your army now has with the SA80 drill! Well done for that. Back in our day you just marched until your arm fell off!
I noticed that the New Guard commander led the troops yet the Old Guard commander trailed the guard. What is the historical reason for this? My mind immediately jumps to some kind of disciplinary reason like he has to ensure that no troops decide to "peel off" and stop at a pub on the way back to barracks😁.
Attending one of the British armed forces prestige parades such as this or the trooping of the colours is definitely a bucket list item of mine if we could ever reach some kind of parity to the UK£! (Somewhere around 20:1 atm)!
It's always a pleasure to actually watch a parade because as you can imagine after 37 years of military musicianship I can count the amount of parades I have actually watched on 1 hand!
Sorry, 1 last question. How long is a band detached to the unit at the barracks for this assignment? Does 1 band have to do this parade every day that they are there?
Anyway, thanks for the wonderful video and well done to the "Tiffie" guys and gals on their professional performance.
Cannot wholly answer, I noticed the older players , unless territorial - apparently this was a REME unit, so quite a few desk jobs as radio planners, servicing, comms, internet etc around inside the UK so its not a total feet on the ground ready to go unit. For getting to UK , IF still playing it looks like commonwealth nations are guesting guard duties at UK royal palaces - so maybe a word in your COs ear to see if can get a gig in the UK - or for Military Tattoo - sorry prob a working holiday but I would imagine the travel would allow a week travel about at the end of a tour ? Ahh - someone said the band is Royal Corp of Army Music, which then presumably they are scorers, maintainers, logistics for music supplies and events and so on.
@@highpath4776 yes, I see there was a Canadian artillery band there at one stage. I actually played with them in Korea in 2000 as part of a "Peace Tattoo" to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Korean war. I was in the South African Air Force band then.
If I remember correctly we had the Royal Engineers band in Korea as well! I wonder if it was the same band? A great bunch of guys and we were all in the same hotel together and all the commonwealth bands used to drink together in the same bar. There was a band from each country that fought in the Korean war. As far as the commonwealth countries went there was the us and the Canadian artillery band (they were a territorial band), the Royal Engineers band, the Australian Air Force band and the New Zealand Navy band.
Our bands do travel internationally occasionally (generally combined banbs in the army at least) but budgets are tight this side and demographics also form part of the process and only 10% may be white (an acceptable issue in my mind having been part of the apartheid regime!).
Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it.
I notice that one of the female band members is marching with the band but has no instrument, presumaby a new member on her first changing the guard. Very smart.
@Steve Luke See earlier comments, that is the Director of Music, Major Lauren Patritz-Watts
Great video.👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you ☺️
What's the girl in the middle of the band playing, love eggs ?
The bandsman on the clarinet at the rear seems a bit old to be a serving soldier. What's the max age?
10:04 lions led by donkeys❤️🇬🇧💯 10:24
Notice they are still doing a good job of hiding the hobbits and dwarves (those with a strange growth out of the back of their heads). When are they going to re-introduce a minimum height standard? Preferably above 4'11".
@Major Laff. They won't. The current height minimum for most is 4' 8". Men and women and all the in-betweens that our woke Army accepts nowadays in the name of inclusiveness and diversity. Quite the cast of Fraggle Rock.
@@ken-u3n I was only joking about the 4' 11". Didn't know about the 4' 8", But if they can't get real men, I suppose pretenders are better than nothing. Bye-bye Britain. You once were Great.
@@majorlaff8682. My bad. I think it's 148cm ( 4' 10") in line with other NATO armies. In truth, they're just making up the numbers to make things look good on paper. 🙄
@@ken-u3n Again, I was only joking about the 4' 11". I had a friend who joined junior soldiers at 15 in the seventies (left school on the Friday, was in junior soldiers regiment on the Monday, his greatest claim to fame was ball boy at Wimbledon). His ID card had him at 5' 1'' and he hated it. Fortunately, by age of 18, he made a more respectable 5' 6" which was ideal for a Chieftain tank gunner.
Things may look good on paper but they look awful on parade.
@@majorlaff8682 I know. Anyway, c'est la vie nowadays. Mustn't grumble. 😂😂
There is nothing amazing in the video. A weak team has been selected . Elderly people among musicians. There are other videos from Windsor, much more interesting.
I love constructive criticism on any subject and there will always be somebody who does not enjoy this type of video and that is perfectly fine with me. I for one always enjoy these videos having had the honour to serve in the British Army in Windsor amongst other places around the world and Lenny always does a fine job recording them. Your comments are not criticism, they are just rudeness. If you have nothing positive or constructively critical to say keep your comments to yourself.
WELL DONE LENNY!!!
@@demurphy9002 This is my personal opinion. And I ask you not to tell me when to praise something, and when to criticize. Your rudeness was here for sure
@@user-dh1pp4e6p Your grasp of the English language is obvious,in my comment I stated that I enjoy constructive criticism at all times,your comments were not this ,they were simply an opinion,a rude one at that.If you cannot give constructive criticism at all don't say anything.
@@demurphy9002 To speak or not to speak is my right - I'm still telling you about it. You don't have to read what you don't like. Ignore the comments that are "inconvenient" from your point of view. Why do you consider yourself dominant and inaccessible to criticism. It's not productive.
@@demurphy9002 Thank you. I am not as professional but I try my best 🙏☺️🙏
