Changing the Guard Copenhagen New Year's Eve 2024- Den Kongelige Livgardes Musikkorps

[@delvinrodriguez3341]

Now this is absolutely spiffing!! Not only is the video top quality as usual, but the Musikkorps played my favourite march twice!!!!!! TRAFALGAR! 🥳😂 What a wonderful way to end the year! I'd also like to thank MBE for all the spiffing videos this past year! They've been excellent! Thanks! Happy New Year to Everyone!

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Haha thank you very much Delvin and for all your support through the year! What a fitting way to end as you say with a rendition of Trafalgar in Copenhagen!!

[@AlbaAlba-fg2io]

@@delvinrodriguez3341 No doubts: they've played "Trafalgar" for you, yes playing it twice!!😃 You can 'snare' it now, as you haven't yet made it.

[@AlbaAlba-fg2io]

Thank you very much for this umpteenth Danish Changing Guard, closing 2024! We must say the Danish Royal Band is excellent, beautiful marches (nice "Flowers" Cyrus), they also play in circle. Happy New Year, may 2025 be prosperous and full of 'trips' abroad!!🎉🥂

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

No problem. A real pleasure to film the band again after visiting earlier this year in January and it being too cold for the band and only the drum corps marching. Thank you, hopefully many more adventures can be planned!! Happy new year and thanks for the support Alba!

[@tram90]

A very nice and long video, without being boring. The choice of marches was excellent and with the alternating roles of the orchestra and drum corps it made for a lot of listening. The fact that the flautists can play without notes is in itself a sign of high quality. Thanks to all involved and a Happy New Year to all.

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Thank you!! I am glad you thought so. It was a great performance so it was worth including it all and not trimming the video!! The corps of drums are exceptional and should be an example to many other countries with their fine playing and memory skills!!

[@mervwhitney7229]

Thank you . Always good to see a marching band and some of the tunes are very familiar. Good to see the UK is not alone in having these events.

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Indeed, it’s great to see how other countries do it and then how they interpret and perform the familiar marches we all know!

[@alastairorr3802]

First class playing. So together. An excellent band. Thanks so much for posting. A Happy New Year to you and to all on this channel. All the best from Scotland.

Excellent, what a pleasent marching tempo 104 bpm 👍 Kgl. Kronberg Regiments Marsch = Admiral Stosch Marsch 🙂

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

A very pleasant tempo indeed. Stately and efficient. Thank you, another name for the march I was unaware of!

[@hessenlander-musikant7618]

@@MilitaryBandsEverywhere This is the original name of this original german march. Want some more informations: On October 28, 1871, Emperor Wilhelm I ordered the establishment of a permanent naval music corps in Wilhelmshaven. Staff oboist Carl Latann was appointed to lead the music corps of the 2nd Sailors' Division. When the orchestra's size was to be drastically reduced in 1878, Latann objected and increasingly looked for a civilian position. His attempt to establish a music school in Wilhelmshaven and positions in Jever and Nijmegen in the Netherlands were not really successful. Latann was only able to find a job as municipal music director in Bad Freienwalde for a short time in 1888, as he died there on October 154 of that year. His march "Admiral Stosch", which is still valued today, commemorates Albrecht von Stosch (1818-1896), the first head of the newly founded German Admiralty. Stosch devoted a great deal of energy to significantly increasing the German navy and to enabling the ships to be built in domestic shipyards. In the march, Latann uses a quote ("This is the Lord's day") from "Schäfers Sonntagslied" based on a poem by Ludwig Uhland and set to music by Conradin Kreutzer.

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

This is really interesting. Thank you for sharing this, a good story and translated well to understand. Thank you, I will add this name to the description too!

[@jakobsandberg4089]

Thanks for the Video! Kgl Kronobergs march is written by Carl Latann, not Daton. Original name in Amiral Stosch and it´s a german navy march. It was the march of the 11th infatry regiment of Sweden, Royal Kronoberg regiment and was based in Växjö.

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Thank you very much Jakob, I’ll change it straight away! I was reading the name from a very old handwritten part and couldn’t quite work out the name. Thank you for these correct name! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

[@jakobsandberg4089]

@@MilitaryBandsEverywhere I know the struggle! Hand written part that has been through some rain isn’t the easiest to read. Have subbed a bit with the band before and was playing Britta Polka by Lumbye on euphonium with handwritten parts. Used half the number to find out if the part was in alto or tenor clef…

[@haglasu1468]

Das ist der Tag des Herrn, [Video bricht ab]

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Haha I’m sure that made for an entertaining few minutes!! Older parts certainly have a ‘charm’ and ‘character’ to them

[@rosconorth]

What a great selection of marches - a few I have never heard before especially the March by Jessel. This band is top class. Compared to the British guards I think they sound better. The trombones here have the correct attack and release when the guards play these days are playing the notes too long.

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Thors Marsch by Jessel was also new for me but very fun to listen to! The clarinet parts are very cheeky sounding. Interesting comparison to the guards bands. As a trombone player in the guards I can fully appreciate what you mean, everything in Denmark is played with the correct articulation as written which certainly packs a punch with it still being balanced. In London we have more than one player per part, often 2 per part (even bass trombone) which can throw of the balance, plus the playing style that is passed on from generation is to play everything long, even off beats. What is a shame that sometimes the dynamics are not adhered too so the front rank can wash out the band. We should still be able to play long and it still be tasteful and balanced keeping the British style. An interesting discussion to be had though!

[@AlbaAlba-fg2io]

I think they played "Trafalgar" to wish Delvin a Happy New Year🙂

[@delvinrodriguez3341]

[@mcswato1]

This is only the second time that I've ever seen a recorded watch-your-step hand signal. Thanks. Is that gesture recognized informally only?

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Haha good spot and a good question. I think it is a universally recognised gesture however not a formal one. It’s done in the UK often by musicians who spot an obstacle that others behind may miss to it is often passed back through the band as the musicians approach it. It’s something myself did instinctively, a small wave with one hand/arm behind your back. It’s all part of the team ethos of the military and music, always looking after your team players so is a natural response plus the signal used is usually the most efficient to observe and give whatever instrument your playing.
