Conducted by Captain J. Causley Windram, Director of Music, Coldstream Guards
Before 1783 the Band of the Coldstream Guards consisted of civilians who were hired by the month and had only one military duty-to play the Guard from St. James's Parade to the Palace and back again. When it was twenty strong, it played in Paris during the Allied occupation of 1815. In 1938 it played at the World's Fair in New York, and it was the first British Army band to visit Canada.
