The Rotary International Anthem

Transcript :

The anthem chosen by the Board of Directors in February 2000 is an arrangement of the march of the Egmont Overture by Ludwig van Beethoven (Op. 84).

This anthem is intended to be played on various occasions, especially at the beginning of official meetings: district assemblies, district conferences, all international meetings, to accompany the flag ceremony, and often at statutory meetings.

It gives them a solemn atmosphere.

There are 2 versions: a short one of 45 seconds and a long of 2 minutes, one or the other adapting perfectly to different circumstances.

As with the other anthems, the audience rises when it is played.

The national anthems of the personalities present at these various meetings can also be included with the Rotary International anthem.
