brass band in "Parade Rest" Verdun 2008

Post by offbrass »

Hello, I was watching the BBC's coverage of the Armistice service in France where the Riga, Latvia: A Latvian army brass band played. There was a short panning video shot from behind the band that showed them in "Parade Rest" with the horns facing to back of the band members, held under their arms. I have been told that French horns are designed that way, so it may not have been the Latvian band at all.

In any event, it was that panning shot of all the men standing in a strait line, in uniform, with their brass horn instruments under their arms that I liked. Unfortunately the BBC's coverage has been truncated (such camera shots were before the officials arrived) and so I have not been able to see it again.

Do you have any photography or know where I might be able to see some online of such a description?


Many thanks.
