Product Description

The national anthem of Nauru arranged for String Orchestra.

"Nauru Bwiema" (Nauruan pronunciation: [n̪ʌˈuru bˠiˈɛmʲæ]; English: "Nauru, Our Homeland" is the national anthem of Nauru. The lyrics were written by Margaret Hendrie, with music composed by Laurence Henry Hicks. It was adopted in 1968, upon attaining independence from the mostly Australian-administered UN Trusteeship.

History:

The anthem was composed by Anglo-Australian composer and military bandmaster Laurence Henry Hicks, who was leader of the Black Watch Band. It was adopted upon independence from the UN Trust Territory of Nauru, which was mostly administered by Australia, in January 1968.[2] The anthem did not have official lyrics at the time,[3] but lyrics by Nauruan composer Margaret Griffith Hendrie (19351990) were later adopted.
