Can't help with on-line, but I'm sure the DOD has their official 
book, and I think the US Navy Band is the official place to check 
with.

I have a 6.54 mb PDF of "Raccolta di Inni Nazionali" published in 1895 - 
score meant for piano (i.e., harmonized, but what I'd call "no frills" 
renditions), a few with lyrics, if you're interested. The US anthem has 
differences from what we're used to today, so I imagine some of others 
may as well.
Chile, Argentina, Portugal, Paraguay, Norway, Turkey many other

Let me know if you'd like to have the PDF via email.


I would love a copy too.

Thanks!

Cecil,
I'd love to have a copy of it if you're extending the offer to others on

They are all here: http://themes.mididb.com/anthems/ with no lyrics. These
versions are fully harmonized but  the timing is clean and the melodies are
on separate staffs so it's easy to copy them out.

MIDIs and lyrics are here: http://www.nationalanthems.info/ but the MIDI
files need a little tweaking (set the key correctly, etc.)

There is an internet site NationalAnthems.us offering lots of anthems 
incl. lyrics and - more or less - reasonable keyboard reduction scores; 
see http://www.nationalanthems.us/

whatever you have!  i want to compare the forms and motifs for a 
project that will exacerbate the implicit character and similarities 
of many national anthems by a sort of process that multiplies 
everything by everything else.


if i could get a copy that would be fantastic, thanks!


Are there any specific ones you want?
