National Anthems of the WorldThanks to Ginny Allen, John Crowell, Judith Cook Tucker, Kathy Boyce, Tom Lumb, Gene Morlan, David Griggs-Janower, Pat Marovich, for their quick responses to my query. Here is a sampling of their suggestions. Check out National Anthems of the World Ed.: W. L. Reed & M. J. Barstow Blandford Press ********** There is a book called National Anthems of the World, available through Walton, I believe (you might try Pepper). Perhaps you'll find them there. ********** I found the South African Anthem by doing an Altavista search - they even had a sound clip! ************ You should be able to get Ghana's N/A at: http://www.lengua.com/hymnen.htm This is a site with links to many N/As - but not Senegal :-) The Ghana N/A server was down when I tried just now, so I don't know how good it is. Try, anyway. *********** Try the following site At the place provided, type in National Anthems, and you will find all kinds of information about national antems. Also, click on the 37 Engines panel on the left and there are 37 different search engines to select from, many of them have information about national anthems. I found at least two which permits you to select a specific country and then you can hear the national anthem. I found both Senegal and Ghana. I would guess that if you searched enough you could find the texts as well. Good luck. ********* There's a wonderful book titled "National Anthems of the World," edited by Reed and Bristow, Blandford Press. ********* I hope that included everyone.
