I think the 'whistling' sound was probably the flutes from the corps of drums behind the band. I have played this march and it does actually say to whistle in the cornet and clarinet parts. In some arrangements anyway !
Good music knows no international boundries and there is no better music than the British Military Bands. I was so proud to be English when the Band of The Grens played at Key Area Seattle USA. The brought the house down. One of the best German marches played by bands worldwide is Alte Kamaraden (Old Comrades)
@mf18nh They are the Directors of Music for each of the 5 Bands of the Foot Guards that combine to form the Massed Bands of the Foot Guards seen here. They are all officers of the rank of major or higher who conduct, and are in charge of, their individual bands.
To delve deeper, bearskin in general was expensive and very hard to acquire. Which is probably why it was only worn by the elite, who were in most armies, grenadiers. Initially these grenadiers had cloth caps that made them taller. However, it has evolved much since bearskin caps were first adopted by the British Army in the 18th century, becoming even taller and much larger.
@DiVeronica Yes and No; It was composed by Julius Fucik - a Czech, however the Czechs were subjects of the Austrian empire at the time, and Fucik was in the Austro-Hungarian army as a bandmaster.
Thank you for your efforts as you keep pace with the band (nice to hear the woodwind parts up close) and for pointing out the name of this march and its composer. I know Fucik for his Florentiner March and Entry of the Gladiators. I have heard British bands play this march before but was unaware it was by Fucik.
why not? music doesnt have a nationality. Wings is perhaps the most popular regimental march in the commonwealth, and it was written in German. Also, the British Royal Family is German descended, so the Queen being Colonel in Chief of the regiment makes the song make perfect sense
+Paul Fowler" Utter bullshit" As an ex service man of 9 years service you talk shite. Brits are and always will be the best trained soldiers in the world Why do you think that most countries send their own here to be trained ????
The Warrant Officer is not a Drummer, he is a member of the Band therefore he is a Percussionist. A Drummer is an Infantry Soldier and a member of the Corps of Drums.
@hwllll Yes there is some significance to the shape of their bearskins. You have to look at these uniforms in the context of 18/19th century warfare. The red tunics were worn as a camoflage. the thinking at that time was that a block of red made an individual indistinguishable especially the officers, from sharpshooters. The bearskin shape was to protect and disguise the shape of the head from the lancers. The chinstrap to protect the throat from the cavalry swords. Hope this helps.
Just discovered this, a great video, love the march and how well the band plays it. But wondering did the band really whistle or is was it just the wind insturments highlighted? windy344
+MrHeesbeen I really like the "Eagle Quadron March" from Alford. But I also like the old british/scottish marches like British Grenadiers, The Grenadiers Return, Trooping the Colour, Highland Laddie, St. Patricks Day, Bonnie Dundee, The Garb of the Old Gaul, The Duke of York March or Scipio and Figaro
Furthermore, the Germans were the king of marches and bands way back when. The 5 individual Regimental Bands, which form the Massed Bands of the Foot Guards seen here, were modelled on German military bands. So I think it's 'appropriate' for them to play German marches, heck even the Royal Family is 'German' as well. They've also been seen playing American marches like the Washington Post march, Semper Fidelis, the Invincible Eagle, the King Cotton march etc.
@maggytec Fucik's march has been much distorted by the video camera reproduction. I heard them play this march down The Mall and it did not sound like this at all. Most of the music you hear on TH-cam you must take with a pitch of salt!
@mf18nh I'm confused by your logic! What reason would they have not too? It's music, that's all that matters. They've played many German marches like Flying Eagle, Steadfast and True, Per Aspera Ad Astra, Badenweiler, Prussian Glory, Radetsky, With Sword and Lance, Territorial, The Peacemaker, National Unity etc. I don't see any point in sticking to 'pure British' marches.
What is the tittle of this march,i remember this march when im in highschool band we play it,but i forget the tittle any body knows the tittle many thanks
yes, i know this, my point was solely that the languages are sufficiently diverged to be able to say that scots gaels are not linguistically irish. mostw ords are spelled differently. there are pronunciation differences. the grammatical rules of scots and irish gaelic differ.
Just adding to that the British Grenadiers won the right to where the bearskins at the battle of Waterloo when the took the bearskins from Napoleons dead Imperial Guardsmen
hwlll They have been worn since the Battle of Waterloo,(Sunday 18th June 1815) where they were taken as a badge of honour by the Grenadier Guards when they defeated Napoleons bearskin-wearing Imperial Guard.
@kaiserliam That depends heavily on how you define 'German'. If you use a linguistic definition, then you are right. But if you reject nineteenth century ideas about Nationalismus, the fact remains that the Sudeten Germans never at any time lived in a German state, German nation or German country - until Hitler. How, therefore, are they German? Using the logic of Hitlerian racial nationalism, we could say the Scottish Gaels are Irish because they are linguistically Irish.
Oh the post war expulsion is what that means? I am well aware that German speakers were expelled across Eastern Europe by the Soviets and resurgent Slavic peoples that came with them. It was wrong but it happened. The Fatherland no longer includes Sudetenland, Schlesien, Posen oder Preußen... :/
die Tschechen haben überhaupt nichts zusammengebracht, warum muß die EU zahlen, Österreich brauchte keine EU-Gelder, sie haben selber etwas geschaffen, zum Unterschied von den Behm
My meaning was that I have no qualms with the Czechs as a nation, with every right to self-determination as the German people etc. I do not know when this march was composed but if it was before the break-up of the Austro-Hungarian Empire it can easily be claimed for the German people.
Wrong, kos. Up to 1866 (Ausscheiden aus dem Deutschen Bund) the "Sudeten Germans" lived in the German Empire No. One, ended by Napoleon I. 1802, when he took the Emperator-title from Austrian-German-Emperor Franz II, lieved him with the title of an only Autrian Emperor Franz I., although he was his father in law, cause he married his daughter. - But: up to 1918 there was never a state named "Chechoslovakia" to find on the globe, only the "Markgrafschaft Mähren" and the Kingdom of Bohemia, which
@kos The Scots Gaels are Irish lol. They lived in the north of the island and invaded, thrashing the native Caledonians or Picts. Still, Sudetenland isnt too important but Alsace-Lorraine, East Prussia ( based around Kaliningrad) and that bit of Germany given to Belgium, should all be given back. :P
Continue: capital was several centuries served as the capital of the "Holy Roman Empire of German Nation before Vienna it was! Emperor Rudolf II. of Habsburg ruled 37 years on the "hradschin" over his empire (1570-1607), visited not often Vienna! Up to 1850 the majority of Prague Citizens spoke German, the Germans as well as the jewish population, the most famous part of Prague in the city, the socalled "Kleinseite" or in Czech "Malo strany" was founded 1134 by the German Lothar of Brunswick!
lol'd. if you say so, buddy examine the two languages. scots and irish have drifted apart. they have different grammatical rules, different pronunciations, and different spellings. not only that, irish is not the 'root' form of gaelic, all extant gaelic languages are offshoots from insular celt languages. can't really say that scots gaelic bears much resemblance to irish gaelic anymore. you could say that both languages have related history, but not that scots gaelic is linguistically irish
I don't know what "blind patriotism " has to do with the merits of musicianship has to do with it. I don't know what the entry qualifications are for a army band are but I do for the Royal Marines, and the army would probably be the same. These musicians will have as a minimum a grade 8 from RCM. which is a concert standard degree. most will have a MA and there is at least 1 doctorate of music in this band. Every muscician also has to play at least 1 other stringed instrument

@@janiax23 You might want to revisit history.. Yes, he was a czech, who's country was part of the Austrian - Hungarian Empire. He also served in the Austrian army and spoke German most of his life. That was the reason the march has a Germnan title. So let me correct myself: It's an Austrian march.
Sorry, if you dont understand, what I mean: I asked for your understanding the czeck culture, but to that culture belongs the crime of expelling 3 millions of Germans and killing a number of 200000 ore more by a violating transfer at 1945/46.

Congratz to the person behind the camera that filmed this. He did a great job marching together with the guards Lol
