I'm a US Marine and had the privilege of working with Royal Marines. Truly a very professional and classy group of warriors.

[bunburyodo]

I mean, yes, they are clearly very talented and clever, but can we please take a moment to admire the clarinetists magnificent moustache?!

[ianredpath]

Classic British humour from the great Bands of HM Royal Marines. More of this please!

[ddb]

All concerts should have at least a few minutes of funny entertainment no matter how “serious” the show may be. This was amazing. Not because of how they played or what they played. It because it put a smile on the audience (including myself watching on YouTube) and you can even see the band also having a smile in their faces.
To smile is one of the real good few reasons we all have to keep on our lives no matter how bad the day is.
Thank you all.
Cheers

Absolutely tip top British humour and talent at work!!

[trenae]

To anyone who ever says a Marine has no sense of humor, I present THIS!!! Loved from the first "drop" to the last!

[jedjohnstone-law]

This ladies and gents, is British humor at its finest!

[chrisbaggieboy]

As an ex 3 RGJ band member these musicians in the marines are polished to the highest standard and are excellent in what they do and I could only dream in being this good, Well done.

Not only a plumber who is instantly available, and fixes a leaking pipe in record time, but who is also a highly accomplished musician! What an amazing contraption, who worked that one out, and how long did it take to build? This made me laugh so much, and I have added it to my HM Royal Marines Playlist. Keep the music coming guys, it is just what we need right now and always. Brava!

When I was a serving Royal in the 70s the RM band was all male and a much more formal marching band as opposed to a full fat orchestral style band. I’m proud to say that, although excellent in my day, these guys are even better. The ladies in the band bring a whole new dimension and the extended range of instruments, vocals and repertoire along with humour like this piece make this about the most entertaining all round band I’ve seen. The visuals and uniforms, the movement of the drummers/buglers just top it all off.
Brilliant. So proud of you.

[Cherubim]

Mozart like you've never heard before! What a talented bunch they are, truly superb!

[AussieBrit]

This is bloody brilliant!!! I played the glockenspiel (a similar instrument) in elective music during high school and, trust me, I know how hard this is! Thanks for the upload! Cheers from Oz! 🦘

[beneomr]

Best bit of plumbing I have seen in years. Well done chaps.

[thTrombone]

Proper musicianship. It's a dying art.

[stephanieruggles]

I love "Circus Renz". But this version ist simply hilarious. Only the British can do IT this was with their humor. Thank you for sharing. Just made my day...

[virginiafry]

The man playing the xylophone is very talented!

[lordtoe]

Music and comedy, they go together in the best ways.

[louisasevier]

I love that people find ways to turn literally *anything* into a musical instrument!

[bovinelyme]

Hello from America! This is brilliant! Thank you!
