      Thank you very much Delvin, must admit I do love a bit of Wagner, Ride of the Valkyries must be one of those iconic regimental marches.

    Bonjour; Toujours un plaisir de regarder vos vidéos et d'admirer les superbes musiques de votre pays. Comme je vous l'avez dit, je serai sur Londres du 5 au 7 juillet pour assister au spectacle A Military Musical Spectacular le soir du 7, pourriez-vous me dire à quelle heure les musiques partent de Wellington Barracks pour rejoindre le spectacle? Est ce que le 7 juillet, il y a la relève de la Garde à Buckingham? Je vous remercie par avance des informations que vous m'apporterez pour la réussite de mon séjour. Bonne journée.

    Lovely video. Thanks to @delvinrodriguez3341 for listing the marches. Super. Although the British Army Band Colchester are super, I still find it a shame that the Band of The Parachute Regiment is no more. . . especially on occasions such as this.

    They may be able to jump out of a perfectly good plane, but Marching in step seems too hard. Anyway, where are their number ones and bayonets, not to mention the colours? Sorry about this, my dad was royal artillery, so I am biased.

    Hi, Freedom of the City? Doesn’t look like it, should be bayonets fixed, colours flying, mascot pony on parade, Regimental band and pipes and soldiers in No. 1 Dress with medals displayed! Or is this what we get these days with the whittled down Army of Great Britain? I know its been a few years since I marched through Aldershot when 3 Para had the Kees to the City and we proudly marched with a swagger like we owned the place! Oh well, it’s just a very old Paras memories. Cheers mate. Harera

      Thank you for your kind comments, I am afraid my French is not very good but hopefully you can use google to translate. Changing the Guard will take place on Wednesday 5th July, with the bands of the Coldstream and Grenadier Guards and on Friday 7th July with the band of The Scots Guards and Irish Guards Pipes and Drums. (according to the Changing The Guard website, those could change though) No Buckingham Palace Guard change on Thursday 6th July I am afraid. Hope you have a good time at the military musical spectacular.
