Regimental Music
On 30th June, 1667 Samuel Pepys met Lord George Douglas in Rochester and mentions seeing his Regiment; he records that "here in the streets I did hear the Scotch March beat by the drums before the soldiers, which is very odde."
Many other references to the "Scots March" appear in history, but whether the present Regimental March, "Dumbarton's Drums", is one and the same thing cannot he proved with certainty. There is good ground, however for such an assumption. The name derives from the time when Lord George Douglas, created Earl of Dumbarton in 1675, was Colonel, and the Regiment was known as "Dumbarton's Regiment".
"Dumbarton's Drums" is played by the combined band, pipes and drums. When, however, Royalty is present on parade "The Daughter of the Regiment" is also played. This tune commemorates the fact that Queen Victoria was born when her father was Colonel of the Regiment. Playing off after a band programme, "Dumbarton's Drums" is followed by "The Daughter of the Regiment".
