Quote from: Bentxamì Puntmasleu on March 30, 2024, 02:47:50 PMThe lyrics of Vuode's provincial anthem uphold the supposed virtues of Robert Ben Madison (who, at the time of the writing, was no longer king (between his first and second reigns) but serving as Premier of Vuode) against the republicanism of Dan Lorentz and Bob Murphy. Oddly, the music is set to La Marseillaise.

We should probably get around to changing it.

Maybe I could help by composing my own music.

If @þerxh Sant-Enogat and @Bentxamì Puntmasleu will like the idea of me composing the music, then it's settled.

I mean I do have some musical knowledge. I can nearly perfectly replicate songs in GarageBand sicne I have gotten an iPad from my school. Before that I have done it in BandLab, and before that, I had a looper hooked up to my keyboard (the musical instrument) and made the music using that.

So I guess it's settled then. I'm composing the melody to the anthem myself. Give me some time.

That is an excellent development!  I'm sure your creativity will shine through. 

One idea for the lyrics might be to have a blend of Talossan, French, and English lyrics?  Perhaps echoes in the different languages (similar to the Beatles "Michelle") or just words used as is (similar to Talking Heads "Psycho Killer")

Or make a trilingual version. Just like Belgium.

I could also be like Liechtenstein which uses the British anthem's melody but higher pitched.

I'll maybe do that. I'll just pitch the instrumental up and maybe alter it a little bit.

@þerxh Sant-Enogat @xpb I know I didn't compose it myself. I couldn't bring a melody together. So I just went Liechtenstein and pitched up the melody. As I said, I have also altered a bit by slowing it down and extending the end.

Quote from: xpb on April 08, 2024, 11:03:06 PMI stumbled around with a Fanfare to go with the anthem using Musescore

https://drive.google.com/file/d/15dz9fhHGgjYAqYN8urENvq9f4CbX3pOh/view?usp=sharing is the 12 bars for brass

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qIwZFArd9a45UKHZ1AsPRmPCDMli2hoZ/view?usp=sharing is a synthetic performance


Noticed it's in C major. The melody was pitched up from F major to F# major, so I'll have to pitch the fanfare to F# major as well (I AM going to use it, sounds good)

Once again, who will translate the lyrics to Talossan and French? My vision is three separate versions for some more local (?) occasions and a trilingual version for more official occasions.
