RM Band Collingwood - Royal Marines Graspan Parade 2024

[@daviddumbraveanu589]

The marches played by the band were:
0:01 McAlpine (drum solo)
0:30 Eagle Squadron
6:02 Illawala (drum solo)
6:22 Action Front
9:52 Cosgrove (drum solo)
12:15 A life on the ocean waves
And also at 2:43 the drum major signals the band to play quieter when they pass the Guards' Chappel because they was a service there probably. And then at 5:05 the bass drummer signals the band to play at the normal volume.

Why are corps of drums Royal Marines up front I fight they are in back of the band

[@ginkiat7268]

For the RMBS they are at the front

[@daviddumbraveanu589]

The Royal Marines Corps of Drums are always at the front of the band. This began in 1902 when Lt George Miller placed thirty Buglers in front of the massed bands at the Coronation Review at Aldershot.
