To our American kinfolk across the pond, YOU will always be "our brother's in arms" We enjoy having you all in the UK. May God bless our American Brother's and my homeland the United Kingdom.
My grandfather commanded a large Allied hospital in England during WW2. We GM have a photo of Queen (later Queen Mother) visiting the base & being guided by him. Our family heirloom reminds us of the ties that bind our nations together. Britons never will be slaves.
You know what I love best about watching these Marines preform? Is the 'fact' that each and everyone of them does this so very well, and that they are as ready to pick up arms and defend this country under this Constitution as it was written! Within and without these boarders! Not to man, one party, or wanabe dictator! If you want to bring tears to the eyes of a U.S. Marine, just show him another Marine doing his part in service to this country. Be it on the parade ground field or, the field of battle, I guaranty those who live in this country are in the best hands you can be! Semper fi brothers and sisters of the Corps! Stay true, stay safe, I got your back, I know you've got mine!
As someone from a US Navy, Army, and Marine family, it was amazing when the UK invited us to do this, and our brotherhood could not be explained simply, I would gladly die for both if given the chance. God bless our nations.
As a former flautist, I can say that those ladies ROCKED!!! This piece is hard enough to play on a flute or piccolo while sitting, but standing, marching in formation and turning your body in odd ways so you are always facing forward is a feat! I tear up every time I hear this tune and find my fingers automatically moving to the notes.
Even though he has passed it goes to show the strength and courage a soldier,father,family man can show even in time of a life crisis. May god bless you now and forever 🇺🇸🫡
When my American ex was here in the uk his mom said with all the terrorist attacks he should ring the us embassy in London. He did, they told him he spoke English, so was fair game for terrorists, they didn’t care what accent you spoke it with, British, Australian, Canadian….🤷🏼♀️ It did give me a chuckle because I’d already said he didn’t need to ring them & gave a similar reason why 😂 His parents and two brothers were in the us navy, he was idle and barely even worked. I could never get my head around naval air station Whidbey having planes…it should just have boats 😂 to my Aspergers way of thinking. A beautiful place to visit, I’d go again if he wasn’t there
I am US Navy retired 1973 to 1993. The United States Marine Corps band is such an outstanding unit and the performance of John Philip Sousa‘s Stars & Stripes forever was performed in a flawless and most professional manner. The pride and professionalism of each and every member of the band are true ambassadors of our nation to the world.
As a retired member of the Royal Navy 73 - 95 your boys did you proud 👏 alongside the world's greatest military band HM Majesty's Band of Royal Marines..
I love military marches and music. It gives me a sense of pride, patriotism, respect for military band performers, most of the music is upbeat/moving/arousing. The percussion, timing, disciplined, professionalism stands out.
As a red blooded American and veteran, there is something that touches my heart seeing the USMC play "Stars and Stripes Forever" in the heart of London!
Honor to the Marines and to all the armed forces of that great country which is the United States of America. I served in the military for 14 years as a medical officer and had the honor of knowing them. Unfortunately, I also have a tragic memory: I was present in Lebanon in 1983 when the tragic attack occurred and I was able to lend my assistance as a surgeon.
Retired USAF Tech Sergeant here, ('76-'96) and I must say that was totally awesome. I have always loved military marching bands and Sousa marches. Had tears in my eyes. Again.
A beautiful composition by Mr. Sousa and played perfectly by this Marine Band. It is right and just that it is the national march of the United States .
I have heard this song played quite a few times, while myself was a Active Duty Marine. Love It Ooh-Rah and SEMPER FI to all my Marine Btotheers and Sisters. TY
I cant imagine how many hrs of practice that took. I was expecting the Sousaphones to get thrown in the air like M-1 rifles!!! Mr. Sousa was CERTAINLTLY smiling down on that!!! Stars and Stripes composed on Christmas Day!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
I love seeing this sort of thing where our US allies come across and join our amazing British Armed Forces in a show of unity, pride, stoicism, and strength. There should be so much more of this.
«Живым» он является до того, как его переносят на цифровой носитель. «Живое» слушают только «наживо», мадам. Остальное: воспроизведение с помощью технических устройств, помпезная брехунья-с.(((
I served for 16 years in the Royal Marines and I must comment on the US uniform, it puts the Royal Marines to shame,I know as Shakespeare said " uniform does not a a soldier make".
Every time I hear that March I get chills. Our municipal band plays it every 4th of July with 2 outstanding piccolo players. Our band in Long Beach is the oldest municipal band in the US. Hearing the Marine Corps Band play it with their marching skills on display is wonderful.
This is the music that I heard from my grandfather's clarinet, from the time that I was born, in 1938. I used to march around the diningroom table. I still get goosebumps, and become quite emotional, listening to these fine marching bands, which takes me back to WW2. This is my favourite kind of music.
I dedicate this to my 5 uncles who fought in WW11, two were in England at the time. Also my grandfather was born in England, all of his sons born in the US fought in the war.
Outstanding. It is great to be an American and enjoy hearing our lovely bands play these beautiful songs. Keep yourselves safe in this crazy world of ours. (CA)
My late wonderful Dad served in the US Army Corps of Engineers in WW2. He spoke little about it, except when I asked once about whether he worked with other Engineers. Then he couldn't stop talking about the great British engineers. They were the warmest, most generous, hardest working guys and he cherished the memories all b his life. May we always be worthy 3:52 of such steadfast friends.
*I Love Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever".* This stirring song has been mined of its many flowing, and dramatic sections; ending up in any march that you've *ever* heard.
My hubby was a Navy Medic stationed with the Marines for a time and he said they were a trip to be around. But...when it came to being serious, there were none better! They were the cream of the crop. My cousin was/is a Marine (once a Marine, always a Marine) and when he put on those dress blues, he was a completely different person. You could see the tremendous pride he had. They have the best looking uniforms, too! JMHO God bless all our military no matter which branch they represent!
Wow. I recognize four people form the video! I was a former Marine Band musician, we all went to school together. This was back in 2011, and most of us left the Marine Corps after 2014.
Have trained at Lejeune off and on as an overseas guest. Always impressed and made welcome. The US Leathernecks and the British Bootnecks share much more than a similar nickname, I always felt.
And the composer, John Philip Sousa, was one of many Portuguese Americans to serve his country well. Felicidades de California! O senhor e Portuges? Ou talvez Brasileiro!!
I knew an ex-Marine. He served honorably for two years and they tried hard to persuade him to stay. He could have had a highly successful career in the service, but his heart was not really in the military. Being in the Marines still had a profound impact on the rest of his life.
As a retired U.S. Army SNCO, my deepest respect to our Brothers and Sisters in Arms across the water. I have fond memories of shared hardships “ in the suck” with our British Comrades in Iraq and Afghanistan. Forever may we stand together! Rule Britannia! God Bless the United States!🇺🇸 🇬🇧
How nice, I enjoyed this very much! A great band! A delightful combination for me, personally. My family on my father's side came to America from Britain in the 1700's. They were Quakers.
Outstanding!!! America will never forget the United Kingdom standing with us during our time of great need after the 9-11-01 attacks when you played our national anthem and during the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. 🇬🇧 🇺🇲
The Stars and Stripes Forever, my favourite Sousa march, beautifully performed. There is another great version by Mr. Aker Bilk and his Paramount Jazz Band from the 60's.
Gran recuerdo de infancia,1975-1979,Región Loreto, Perú,se escuchaba en las radios emisoras en honda corta,por lo general eran fondo musical de programas noticieros del medio día o de la una de la tarde;también se escuchaba en el programa de musica instrumental en la radio emisora local de 1pm-2pm.Hoy que tengo 55,hay un programa de TV. local por ahí,noticiero del medio día que lo pone como fondo musical.Grande la música,hermosa,🇵🇪.
Love this! Very different from European military traditions, but wonderful to behold! Sousa didn't compose one single less than brilliant march and this is fantastically controlled playing (playing a wind instrument AND moving around is difficult), so elegant - in a strange way.. Well done!
Almost 50 years ago, I heard the US Navy Band perform this in the Sail Loft at the Washington Navy Yard. The band was on risers and the audience in folding chairs on the floor. Just before the final chorus, eight bandsmen with straight trumpets marched out, formed up, grinned and snapped their instruments up about a yard from the front row of the audience. At the first note of the chorus, we all TRIED to move back.
수자(Sousa)는 미해병 군악대지휘관을 했다지요? 100곡이 넘게 그가 작곡한 행진곡 중엔 동영상에 들리는 The Stars and Stripes Forever가 있고요. 음악녹음 기술이 없던 19세기까지는 해병대가 거리에서 연주하며 행진하는 걸 듣는 것은 음악회에 자유롭게 가볼 수 없는 많은 국민들이 좋은 음악연주를 직접 듣는 매우 귀한 기회였다고 하더이다. 미국인들은 군악대 중에서도 유서깊은 U.S. Marine Band를 제일 사랑한다네요. 예술적으로도 연주가 탁월하답니다. John Phillip SOUSA was the conductor of the U.S. Marine Band. Among more than 100 pieces of marching music he composed is "The Stars and Stripes Forever" that we now hear from this video. Up until the 19th century when we had no technology and skills to record music, the ordinary American people could not afford to enjoy going to the theaters to listen to the real-time musical performances or other shows. However, when the Marine Band marched through the streets, it used to be a very rare chance for the people to hear the real-time musical performances. Americans have loved the Marine Band more than any other military bands. Its performances are said to be artistically excellent, too.
To our American kinfolk across the pond, YOU will always be "our brother's in arms" We enjoy having you all in the UK. May God bless our American Brother's and my homeland the United Kingdom.
GOD BLESS THEM ALL.
To our British kinfolk: may you always live in freedom and peace!

If you can't enjoy Stars and Stripes Forever played by a good band, you're probably dead. Thanks USMC, and salute to the Royal Marines.

As a former flautist, I can say that those ladies ROCKED!!! This piece is hard enough to play on a flute or piccolo while sitting, but standing, marching in formation and turning your body in odd ways so you are always facing forward is a feat! I tear up every time I hear this tune and find my fingers automatically moving to the notes.
Thank you Marines! You did the US, the Corps, and John Phillips Sousa all very proud, and gave this American a smile and a happy tear.
Even though he has passed it goes to show the strength and courage a soldier,father,family man can show even in time of a life crisis.
May god bless you now and forever 🇺🇸🫡
Absolutely brilliant, as a former British Soldier it was an honour to have served alongside The United States Marines in Iraq & Afghanistan.
Gives me goose bumps..RESPECT.
Thank you for your beautiful post. All the best to you. 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇲
All the love back atcha, mate!
Atkinson: God bless you sir. I'm sure my respect reflects that of many when I say thank you for being our faithful partner.
When my American ex was here in the uk his mom said with all the terrorist attacks he should ring the us embassy in London. He did, they told him he spoke English, so was fair game for terrorists, they didn’t care what accent you spoke it with, British, Australian, Canadian….🤷🏼♀️
It did give me a chuckle because I’d already said he didn’t need to ring them & gave a similar reason why 😂
His parents and two brothers were in the us navy, he was idle and barely even worked. I could never get my head around naval air station Whidbey having planes…it should just have boats 😂 to my Aspergers way of thinking. A beautiful place to visit, I’d go again if he wasn’t there

What an honor for a Marine divisional band to play in such hallowed ground.
So proud to see the US Marines perform in the UK! They did an incredible job! ❤️🇺🇸
Played at the speed intended by Sousa, by the band it was written for. Love the way the trumpets and trombones held their horns properly, too.
I love military marches and music. It gives me a sense of pride, patriotism, respect for military band performers, most of the music is upbeat/moving/arousing. The percussion, timing, disciplined, professionalism stands out.
Tears of pride and patriotism. . .
It's a Marine divisional band. It's not THE Marine Band, the President's Own.
... by the band for which it was written. 😉
@@SpeccyMan That's a comment, up with which I will not put.:)
What a great performance. BRAVO!! Absolute American classic all the way. Thanks to the Marine Corps Band. You are perfection. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

BEATIFUL!!!
Never will the Royal Manine Band be beaten. As the 82 year old son of a 45 Commando It makes me proud of my Dad.
For some reason this made me emotional. Especially when the Marines did the slow march. How incredible.

One of the greatest marches ever written.
I loved marching to this in parades as an U.S. Army Infantryman when i was younger.
Well done USMC. Very nice of you to pop over and see us. You're welcome anytime. Per Mare Per Terram / Semper Fi.
Once a Marine always a Marine. Makes me proud to have served in the Corps for four years on active duty and one year in the active reserves!

There is only one word that can describe this performance, AWESOME !!!
That bit where they were marching in hesitation step - a very typical British pace - was primo!
Yes, we call that a slow march step.
How nice, I enjoyed this very much! A great band! A delightful combination for me, personally. My family on my father's side came to America from Britain in the 1700's. They were Quakers.

Stars and Stripes sure makes me proud American! I served in the Navy, this was played at my graduation from basic training.
The Stars and Stripes Forever, my favourite Sousa march, beautifully performed. There is another great version by Mr. Aker Bilk and his Paramount Jazz Band from the 60's.
Motivate me! I spent almost 8 years in the Corps and got out in 1980. I still love it. I’m proud to say my three sons were also Marines. SEMPER FI!
notice a distinct Marine step with the heel coming down first. great military and parade tradition. also uniforms are great in style.

John Phillip SOUSA was the conductor of the U.S. Marine Band. Among more than 100 pieces of marching music he composed is "The Stars and Stripes Forever" that we now hear from this video. Up until the 19th century when we had no technology and skills to record music, the ordinary American people could not afford to enjoy going to the theaters to listen to the real-time musical performances or other shows. However, when the Marine Band marched through the streets, it used to be a very rare chance for the people to hear the real-time musical performances.

Earned the title, Marine and I served from 1986-1993. 🇺🇸
Sousa was great if you cant march to his music you cant march.
Nice rendition guys
Well, as an German guardsman I would be very confused marching to this since the drums and cymbals don’t constantly ,,beat the step“
@@Marco-bf4uu its still basic 4/4 time
Horse guards parade does suffer from echo and its a bit slower than usual in this rendition
Wonderful both bands playing together in unity and our shared bond w/ea other!
Semper Fi, brothers and sisters.
Super good, what professionals, a fantastic march by J.F. Sousa and again those great flute players, marching on a square.
