Video Shot using Hi8 Camcorder

The Singapore Police Force Band is the oldest and most famous marching band in the republic. Throughout it's colourful history it has thrilled generations of Singaporeans with it's music and display, while playing an important role in maintaining a positive public image for the Police.

Due to it's varied commitments and aim to provide a flavour of Singaporean culture, the band has developed an extensive musical repertoire ranging from traditional marches to commercial arrangements.

While the band's participation at the Japanese World Police Band Concert in Yokohama is noteworthy, performing for the first time at the 1991 Edinburgh Tattoo marked a milestone in it's history. Returning seventeen years later the band performs again to a packed audience.

The Women's Police Pipes and Drums were formed in 1972 initially trained by the Gurkha Contingent Pipes and Drums Platoon. The band regularly performs at both police and community functions and has travelled to Japan for at appearance at the World Police Band Concert in Yokohama.

I recorded this video after contacting the Tattoo marketing team seeking permission to film and record their live free event called Taste of the Tattoo which was a hugely popular feature while the main Tattoo event took place at the Edinburgh Castle within the Scottish capital. The video was one of the last I filmed and recorded using a Hi8 camcorder I was gifted by a member of the Edinburgh Cine and Video Society who I had been a member of for many years while living in Edinburgh.
