National Anthems of the World by Michael Jamieson Bristow
This unique reference book (first published in 1960) has, over the years, proved invaluable, not only for the increasing number of occasions on which a particular national anthem is played, but also as a permanent reference book for those interested in music and contemporary culture. Close liaison with Embassies, High Commissions and governments has ensured that National Anthems of the World can claim to be the definitive international authority on the subject.
Michael Bristow is a composer, music editor, music historian and church organist and acquired an interest in national anthems as a teenager at school and has since become of the world's leading experts. In 1984 he was elected a FRGS. In 1984 Michael became co-editor of the sixth edition of NATIONAL ANTHEMS OF THE WORLD and has ensured ever since that the many changes around the world are reflected in each new edition. He is also editor of the STATE SONGS OF AMERICA and is working on two new books, STATE ANTHEMS OF MALAYSIA and PROVINCIAL SONGS OF CANADA. Michael now lives in Norway.
