It's not just some plot to ruin other nation's anthems such as the American and Russian national anthems. Saudi Arabia has such a horrible military band that they also screw up their own national anthem. No discrimination there. All national anthems are played in an equally HORRIBLE manner. In fact the band is so horrible that it is HILARIOUS! Perhaps the funniest part is watching the reactions of the dignitaries and guests who are either trying to suppress their grimaces or to keep from bursting out laughing.

Does the King of Saudi Arabia have a tin ear? He seems not to notice just how horrible his military band is.

PING!

It’s The International Silver String Submarine Band.

If they’re reading the music from right to left that might be the snag 😏

[Rurudyne]

The acoustics are horrible. Want to bet the loud sour note is a Saudi prince?

It takes literally generations of musicians to create good musicians. All cultures are not equal. Saudi Arabia is a primative culture.

This band rivals many African bands in its primativity. However, I am quite sure the musicians are indeed enjoying playing this music, which is very worthwhile personally.

It sounds like a middle school band performance.

In the first place, what great world-appreciating music has ever come out of Arabia, all of Arabia????

Noting wrong with the band at all, it’s obvious that they simply lack a director....

He deaf?....................

Apparently they have never heard my 4th grade school band.

I thought I saw Stymie there.

They were playing it in jazz style with Bedouin influences.

That was one of my favorite episodes while watching with my kids. When Patrick kicks Sandy and then they get into a fight and roll outside. The prolonged yell from Patrick and his re-entry to band practice just cracks me up.

… By order of the Prophet
We ban that boogie sound
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound
But the Bedouin, they brought out
The electric camel drum
The local guitar picker
Got his guitar-pickin’ thumb
As soon as the Sharif had cleared the square
They began to wail

… Sharif don’t like it
Rockin’ the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
Sharif don’t like it
Rockin’ the Casbah
Rock the Casbah

Just awful. The woodwinds had no idea of intonation and the trumpets lost whatever grasp they had on tone production as soon as they got into ledger lines. It didn't help when a clueless trumpet lost track of which verse they were on and played some ending flourishes a verse before the end. Of course, the dignitaries had to suffer through it, but this was truly awful. If the performance was this bad, can you imagine how horrid the rehearsals were?
