第 48 至 51 題為題組 During the past three hundred years, when a country gains its freedom or independence, one of the first things established is a national anthem. National anthems are generally played and sung at formal state occasions and other events which celebrate or support the country’s national identity. Holland’s 16th-century hymn “Het Wilhelmus” is widely considered the world’s oldest national anthem, followed by the U.K.’s “God Save the King/Queen”—also a hymn, popularized in the 1740s. As nationalism spread throughout Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries, so did anthems. Many countries, such as the independent states that are today part of Germany, took “God Save the King/Queen” as a model and adopted hymns (songs of prayer typically addressed to a deity or VIP). Others, notably Spain and France, chose marches (songs with a strong, regular rhythm often performed by military bands)—which expressed a martial rather than monarchic spirit. With imperialism, Europeans spread their musical taste. Even when former colonies gained independence, they often imitated the traditions of their former rulers. The result is that most anthems are either hymns or marches, played on European instruments. Japan’s anthem makes for a good case study of European influence. In the 1860s a British bandmaster living in Japan, John William Fenton, noted that the country did not have a national anthem. A local military officer, Ōyama Iwao, selected the lyrics from a Heian era poem and Fenton wrote the melody. About a decade later, a Japanese committee chose a replacement melody by a court musician—one that had been composed for traditional Japanese instruments, but in a mixed style influenced by Fenton’s arrangement. The version in use today was also altered by German Franz Eckert to fit a Western scale. In addition to hymns and marches, British composer Michael Bristow identifies a couple of more minor categories. National anthems in South and Central America are often operatic, with long, elaborate orchestral introductions. These were influenced by 19th-century Italian opera. Burma and Sri Lanka are both in a folk group, as they rely more on indigenous instruments.

在過去的三百年裡,當一個國家獲得自由或獨立時,首先確立的一件事就是國歌。國歌通常在正式的國家場合以及慶祝或支持該國國家身份的其他活動中播放和唱歌。荷蘭的16世紀讚美詩“Het Wilhelmus”被廣泛認為是世界上最古老的國歌,其次是英國的“上帝保佑國王/王后” - 也是一部十九世紀四十年代流行的讚美詩。隨著民族主義在18世紀和19世紀遍布歐洲,國歌也是如此。許多國家,比如今天屬於德國的獨立國家,以“上帝保佑國王/王后”為榜樣,並採用了讚美詩(祈禱歌通常寫給神隻或VIP)。另外一些人,特別是西班牙和法國人,選擇了遊行隊伍(軍樂隊常常演奏的歌曲具有強烈而規律的節奏),表現出軍事精神而不是君主精神。隨著帝國主義,歐洲人傳播...
