U.S. Navy Fleet Forces Band: Anchors Aweigh

Navy Musicians Association 2009 Reunion, June 27, 2009, at Virginia Beach.

[@B6LSchilke]

I was playing trumpet in this band!

[@judymarlene3414]

You were excellent!

[@johnstreet1812]

Retired Marine here. Loved it when I was on active duty and the Commandant at the time decried that at occasions when the Marines Hymn was to be played, it was preceded by Anchor's Aweigh as a nod to our sea service heritage. Always played as one movement with a nice segue between the two.

Amazing. Of all versions I've heard, this is by far the best, and it's played by real Navy personnel, not less. Excellent, go Navy, HOOYAH!!

My great respect to your uncle. My grandfather served in the Pacific in WWII in the US Navy. Those men were made as much of steel as their ships were. 😊

[@bobcantu1723]

Memorial Day, 1964, I had just joined the Navy (Reserves),wearing my uniform for the very first time, all lined up for the hometown parade, when the 100+ member Muskegon Mona Shores HS band, whose team name is the Sailors, and fight song, Anchors Aweigh, struck up their fight song. Can't describe the thrill I felt. I still try to attend the hometown Memorial Day parade and fill again with pride whenever I hear the 'Sailors' play MY fight song.

[@richardswanson14]

I wish this was my schools fight song!

[@haydenstrawn5398]

thank you for your service bob cantu my papa served in the navy as well

[@238ED]

may you always attend with that broad smile i can see on your face

[@pattibrown8496]

My Dad went to Denby High School in Detroit. Their football team is the Tars, and they also use Anchors Aweigh as their fight song.

[@rrclerk68]

One of the best renditions of Anchors Aweigh I've ever seen. The band is well practiced and has wonderful flourishes throughout, and the leader gives a salute at the end to past band members who are in the audience. GO NAVY!

[@mikebrzostowski8183]

Best I have even heard. Brings tears to my eyes. GO NAVY!

[@RoundenBrown]

This version is called "Fanfare and Anchors Aweigh", arranged by the late Martin DeMey.

[@user-cg3cn1vw5u]

同じ曲目でも、日本の自衛隊と演奏の仕方、表現が違いますね。相対的にアメリカの行進曲は、明るく華やかで、ドイツの行進曲は、少し重厚で、美しい曲が多いようです。「旧友」は、行進曲のあらゆる演奏技術があの一曲に入っていて、みごとな曲になっています。この曲を上手に演奏できたら、他の行進曲はすぐ演奏出きると聞いたことがあります。(大げさですが) 日本の演奏の仕方は、ドイツに似ているよいですが、どちらも好きです。

For such a small ensemble to sound like a freaking DCI finalist, holy fuckballs

[@moatdea218]

I KNOW, Mastacheifa. I thought the same thing. Looks like the same size as the Great Lakes SSC band I played & marched with. I hope we sounded as good (I think we did). We weren't MU's, but ET's, FT's, EM's, MM's, GM's all attending tech school and playing in the band as an extracurricular activity.

Not bad, but when I was the piccolo player for Commander inChief, Atlantic Fleet Band (what later became the Fleet Forces Band) we played this without music. We never carried music or lyres, and had everything memorized that we played while standing in formation or on the march.
