Well, I’m not sure what’s going on here but it’s interesting all the same. Spring Drill? A mix of people from different bands. SDM Chambers looking cool and professional leading the way👍 Thanks for sharing.
@Richard500 It turns out they were rehearsing for Easter Court Changing the Guard at Windsor whereby they band and new guard access the castle through a different entrance. Apparently this change is for a few days only and the reason is steeped in history. During this period the band has to make different manoeuvres to the norm and this is what they are rehearsing here.😊
He is the Band Sergeant Major and is likely instructing the band members on various aspects of the drill. (I asked an expert and am just passing on what he said)
That drum major is very artistic!
Yep, he's the Senior Drum Major for the Household division and has been since 2021. He always performs his duties with style and apparent pride.
He’s called Gareth Chambers
Quite a few musicians from the regional bands. I wonder whether all of them are now redeployed to the Coldstream Guards band?
Yeah lots of new personnel have been assigned into CG band and they are just waiting on their new blues uniforms.

They are reheasing a series of movements without the troops who will be parading. So, seen with everyone else present it all makes sense.
