  • 3. La Révolution En Chansons La Marseillaise
    3. La Révolution en chansons La Marseillaise Elle naît le 25 avril 1792. La Patrie est alors en danger : les souverains d’Europe sont inquiets du sort fait à Louis XVI, les émigrés s’agitent, la France déclare la guerre au roi de Bohême et de Hongrie (l’empereur d’Autriche) le 20 avril et lève des troupes. Claude Joseph Rouget de L’Isle ou de Lisle, officier né à Lons-le-Saunier, est cantonné à Strasbourg. Porté par son enthousiasme patriotique, il compose plusieurs chants, dont le fameux « chant de guerre pour l’armée du Rhin ». Ce chant est repris par des fédérés marseillais, qui le propagent tout au long de leur marche vers Paris. Il devient ainsi la Marche des Marseillois, puis La Marseillaise… Adopté comme hymne national du 14 juillet 1795 jusqu’à l’Empire, puis définitivement en 1879 sous la IIIe République.

  • In Musica E Parole: Gli Inni Nazionali Nella Dottrina Dello Stato Moderno
    www.contabilita-pubblica.it Dottrina www.contabilita-pubblica.it IN MUSICA E PAROLE: GLI INNI NAZIONALI NELLA DOTTRINA DELLO STATO MODERNO di Matteo Carrer, Ricercatore RTDB in Diritto pubblico nell’Università degli Studi di Bergamo The article is about the role of national anthem in modern States. It compasses the evolution of various anthems considering the so called musical “teoria degli affetti” and the meaning of the text. A specific focus is about the italian National anthem, comparing the fierce battle music and the old style text it with the principles of the Italian Constitution. In Italy three Regions have an official anthem and they are analyzed too. L’articolo affronta il tema del ruolo dell’inno nazionale nel contesto dello Stato moderno. Analizza l’origine e l’evoluzione del concetto di inno nazionale, l’origine europea che affonda le radici nella teoria musicale degli affetti e in un certo modo di intendere i canti patriottici (o di battaglia). Un’attenzione specifica è dedicata all’inno nazionale italiano, comparandone il testo ottocentesco e la musica di marcia di battaglia con i principi della Costituzione italiana e con la celebrazione ufficiale garantita dalla legge. Poiché tre Regioni hanno adottato ufficialmente un inno, l’analisi si sposta sulla sovrapposizione nella retorica e nella comunicazione ufficiale tra inno regionale e nazionale. Sommario: 1. Funzione, origine e giuridicità degli inni nazionali. – 2. Inni e legge: breve rassegna di casi. – 3. L’inno nazionale in Italia. – 3.1. Gli inni regionali. – 4.

It presents a comparative approach using Scotland as a comparator, based on three significant time periods throughout the century: the Weimar Republic, the Nazi era and the German folk revival. In each of these eras the issue of national awareness was most in evidence and national identity was being created or was a particular object of tension. The modern Scottish literary renaissance and the Scottish folk revival will be used for comparative purposes. The comparative approach will also aid a deeper understanding of the concept of national identity itself. The hypothesis is that the ballad has contributed to the development of national identity in specific and differing ways in the two countries. Selected artists; poets, singers and Liedermacher have been chosen as representatives for each particular stage. The ballad in the 20th century has previously received little critical attention, thus this period has been chosen as the time frame of the thesis in an attempt to redress this balance and create new knowledge.

    COMPLETE NATIONAL ANTHEMS OF THE WORLD: 2013 EDITION ORCHESTRATED BY PETER BREINER SLOVAK RADIO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA • SLOVAK STATE PHILHARMONIC, KOŠICE* PETER BREINER, CONDUCTOR When I started arranging and recording national anthems some 17 years ago, nobody expected the project would become so big and popular. In the meantime, it has been an important part of two Summer Olympics and numerous other sporting, cultural and social events. It’s hard to imagine the amount of time and work that has been invested into this endeavour, and it could not have been done without the incredible efforts and expertise of several anthem experts, all the musicians, but mainly without the extraordinary recording team that has been involved in this project from its beginning – sound engineer Otto Nopp and Ladislav Krajcovic. This is an extraordinary project and any other existing anthem collection does not come close, in completeness, quality of the research or the size of the orchestral forces used. Every time this album is updated and released, the reactions are always overwhelming - from uncountable press articles and radio/TV shows all the way to special archbishops’ blessings. I hope this latest version, with its unprecedented number of anthems, will be no less appreciated. Peter Breiner National anthems tell the story of the country, its hopes, its dreams, its goals, its struggles and its history. To learn a country’s national anthem is to get a deeper knowledge of the country, and knowledge of other nations is the first step towards cooperation and understanding between peoples. National anthems, as we know them today, started in Europe as praises to the ruler.

  • DOSBARTH 3/4M ACTIVITIES Monday 8Th February 2021
    DOSBARTH 3/4M ACTIVITIES Monday 8th February 2021 Our Topic this week is: America! English: Each country has their own National Anthem. Can you remember the National Anthem for Wales? The Welsh National Anthem is called Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau (Land of My Fathers). England’s National Anthem is called God Save the Queen, Scotland’s National Anthem is called Flower of Scotland and the Irish National Anthem is called Amhrán na bhFiann (The Soldier’s Song). The National Anthem for the United States of America is called The Star Spangled Banner. It was written by Francis Scott Key during the war of 1812. After a heavy night of bombing, Mr. Key could still see the American flag waving among the debris and this inspired him to write the song about the flag, which has a stars and stripes design. If you would like to listen to America’s National Anthem, you can watch this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPKp29Luryc Here are the lyrics to the National Anthem of America: Can you write down the words that rhyme with each other? There are 4 sets of rhyming words! I have given you the first set: light rhymes with fight rhymes with rhymes with rhymes with Can you think of any more words that will rhyme? Maths: In Britain, our currency (money) is Great British Pounds (GBP) and we use the Pound sign (£). In America, their currency is different. They use United States Dollars (USD) and use the Dollar sign ($). When I went to America, I had to change some of my Pounds to Dollars so I could spend money while I was there.
