I never realised before that the song actually had (official!) lyrics. As kids, my brothers and I ad lib-ed our own words to it, relevant to the situation at hand.
They executed it damn near perfectly (excluding the tempo issue which probably wasn't their fault), but when you play piccolo in a marching band with at least 10 piccolos for 4 years, and play Stars and Stripes all 4 years.. it gets irritating. I can't stand the sound of a piccolo anymore. Sorry for the mini rant

It kind of looks as though some, if not most of these are recorded on base, like in the instrument storage areas, or one of their music rooms. At first I thought that too, but then I realized that they are active duty musicians, and although recorded separately, most(at least the bigger instruments) probably don't own or take home to practice.
I can’t get a good view, but they look like nice gigging drums similar to my timpani. What’s more interesting is that there is timpani on the recording at all, because scholars generally agree Sousa didn’t write timpani parts for his marches.

This is one my all time favorites; Marcia Carolus Rex. This march is dedicated to the Swedish King Carl XII, one of the greatest kings in Swedish history. Here performed at the courtyard of the Royal Palace in Stockholm by the Swedish Army Band. th-cam.com/video/DbqOQZnzu-0/w-d-xo.html
Me sitting in my room squealing at the piccs because the sound of piccs is soooo cute. I invented the words . They mean "that's cute" or "that's glinty". I have synesthesia (I hear colors, shapes, and patterns) and I think the sound of piccs is glinty. Too bad my lungs can't handle wind instruments. I do play the organ, though, which I looove. My three favorite instruments are pipe organ, oboe, and piccolo.
I assume that they all have headphones because they're either listening to a metronome or the piece itself and playing along. Then someone compiled the audio tracks into one and voila
NotSoHandyTim I think that they each made an individual recording, and put them all together, because it would almost be impossible to do professional group music in something like a zoom meeting. At least, that’s what my music teacher said.
Crispy Nuggets Yeah it would basically be impossible because everyone has different internet speeds. Aside from cutting in and out if the connection gets unsteady, there's usually a delay that you don't notice until you and whoever is on the other end try to do something simultaneously
Yep, they all have probably have a metronome track or conductor video... so major kudos to the editor who put this together!!!! Then again, that wouldn't explain the one guy who clapped for the piccolos... so maybe they have figured out a way to perform more "together." 🤔 Anyway, PROFOUNDLY AWESOME!!!!! ⚓💖🎶⚓💖🎶⚓💖🎶
On behalf of picc players everywhere....thank you for the quick applause from the sax player. Don't know how the picc player got her dog to sit thru it without howling! My dogo would be as far away as possible after the first note. Really, really miss live concerts. Please all of you stay safe.
This reminds me of the commercial where "I told 2 friends, they told 2 friends and so on, and so on....!" It is awesome. A tribute to their talent, and today's technology!
I don't play the piccolo (I don't have the lung power for wind instruments) but it's one of my most favorite instruments to hear. #1 pipe organ #2 oboe #3 piccolo I do play the organ and I love it. I'd like to hear organ and piccolo together sometime.
Terrific! I know it may sound corny, but I actually get chills with this song when it's performed well - and this performance definitely did it. Thank-you!

I’ve got significantly less years but I had no idea either - does anyone know whether the lyrics are from Sousa or if they were written later on?
@@lameborghini6980 They were written later on Sousa made his own lyrics.
Imagine having enough money to buy a full set of timpanis
It kind of looks as though some, if not most of these are recorded on base, like in the instrument storage areas, or one of their music rooms.

Trust me....your tax dollars paid for that timpani.
David Hunt They may be active duty but they are professional musicians so most of them likely own their own instruments.
Timpani is plural by itself. No "s".

The piccolo snippet in this piece is something fantastic and unparalleled in the entire repertoire of world music.

Made me tear up and put a lump in my throat. Seriously talented musicians. Bravo!!

Go piccs!👍

This is one of the most beautiful patriotic song a nation has
Beautiful...just beautiful! Such amazing talent! Thank you!
Bravo. Two thumbs up. Liked the dog.
Were the piccs rushing or was that just me?
They were. But the strange thing is that the Piccolos were in sync with each other just not with the rest of the group. They were rushing equally.
I wondered, but the play was good and the overall quality just increased to the end; a real gem
Probably has something to do with the lack of a conductor in person. haha. Impressive performance nonetheless.
yes! it’s rare to hear the piccs and clarinets on the same tempo
I thought so too - but whoever edited this video could’ve easily fixed that, so it must’ve been intentional?
You don't have to be in the military to enjoy this video. I'm a civilian and I love The Stars and Stripes Forever.
Imagine being the harp player of the US Navy Band -- Poseidon would blush. This was great (and the piccolo was tight -- go woodwinds!). Thank you!
👍piccs👍 my third favorite instrument. Love it love it love it! It's a sweet tweet.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely wonderful, musically as well as spiritually, my salute!
They should show this on EVERY TV Channel and play it on every radio station !!! This is what America is all about. >
that one trombone player that didnt blink
OUTSTANDING!
It’s good to see Senior Chief Adam Tyler singing again.
I LOVE PICOLLO......REALLY....
So do I. Organ, oboe, and piccolo are the best instruments ever.
