What is the history of the Australian national anthem?
The Australian National Anthem is Advance Australia Fair.It was originally written sometime during the 1870s by Scottish composer Peter Dodds McCormick who lived between 1834 and 1916. The song was known for its patriotic flavour. Originally, the first line was Australia's sons, let us rejoice but, along with other minor changes, this was altered to Australians, all, let us rejoice.The first known public performance of the song was in 1878, at the St Andrew's Day concert of the Highland Society on 30 November that year. It was also performed by a 10,000-voice choir at the inauguration ceremony accompanying the proclamation of the Commonwealth of Australia, on 1 January 1901.Advance Australia Fair was adopted as the National anthem of Australia on 19 April 1984. Between 1788 and 1984, Australia's national anthem was the Royal anthem God Save the Queen (or King, depending on the reigning monarch of the time). The Labor Party sought to change this to reflect a more "Australian" anthem, as it consolidated its independence from England. A ballot was held, and Advance Australia Fair was the winning choice, against Banjo Paterson's Waltzing Matilda and Carl Linger's Song of Australia.See also the related question below.
