-- Anthem --
What "genre" do we assign to "The Star Spangled Banner," "God Save the Queen," "Oh Canada," "Advance Australia Fair," |
"The Marsellaise," and so forth? This tune was explicitly intended as a National Anthem for a fictitious or perhaps as-yet |
unfledged nation. It's a study of the characteristics of national anthems. Its tempo is classic slow 2/4 march, its instrumentation |
is string orchestra and a lead voice, in this case a flute. |
Key: A Time signature: 4/4 Tempo: 90 Length: 96 measures Time: 4 minutes, 19 seconds |
Instruments: String Ensemble, Harpsichord, Rhodes Piano, and Flute |
