Origin of the music?[edit]

In his symphonic "Celebration" Weber concluded his last movement with the same musical phrases. Otherwise Thomas Arne 1710-1778 is credited as the composer.Macrocompassion (talk) 07:52, 30 August 2019 (UTC)

Another version of god save the king[edit]

In-case someone wants to add this one. Robert Bremner put these lyrics in his treatise "The Rudiments of Music" in 1756. No idea if he made it up or they already existed. He used this song as an example how to decorate music. I also may have interpreted the spelling of a couple words wrong as "chain" doesn't make sense to me. If he made it up it's funny cause he's making fun of art from other countries. "Fame (maybe Same or France?) let thy Trumpet sound tell all the World around great George is king. Tell Roome and France and Spain Britannia Scorns their chain all their vile arts are vain great George is King." 65.255.181.151 (talk) 02:58, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
