The Band Of The Grenadier Guards - National Anthems Of The World flac album

The Band of the Grenadier Guards is the oldest of all of the bands in the British Army, with a history dating back over 333 years. In 1685 Charles II allowed the band to maintain 12 "hautbois" (oboe) players. His death in 1685 was so significant for the band that until the Second World War, the Bass Drummer (known officially as The Regimental Timebeater), wore a black armband in mourning of the king's death.
