Hi! Thanks for uploading the video! I like copying what the band does and this was a tricky one to do!

hi, does anyone know the name of the tune at 14:14 ? thanks in advance

It's called Daedalus, composed by Michael McDermott (retired RM Bandmaster) to accompany a Royal Navy film back in 2009 celebrating/commemorating 100 years of naval aviation.

I never really understood this, Is this part of there "Graduation" to prove to senior officers they can play certain pieces of music to a high standard?

[@jamesedwards9690]

it's just really to celebrate them completing their musical training at the school of music before they join one of the bands
