Abstract
Examines the Swedish and German national anthems in the context of cultural constructions of community. The transnational interdependencies of the concepts singing, people, and nation are traced from the end of the 18th c. to the 1950s. The production, reception, and discourse of national and traditional music are discussed. The study also contains music-specific analyses of the speeches of King Oscar II, excerpts from the "Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung" pertaining to national music (1799-1848), and German translations of Swedish score and text MSS.
