Comment Marcha_Real#Copyright_issues is troubling as far as the copyright status of this is --Guerillero | My Talk | Review Me 03:04, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Which harmonisation is this? If it's not the version purchased by the Spanish Government it should be PD from what I can see in the article itself, the performance isn't bad but until the copyright issue is cleared (by that I mean when someone finds out which harmonisation this is) I will suspended this nomination. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 4:45pm • 06:45, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The harmonisation was done in 1908 (see es:Bartolomé_Pérez_Casas#Arreglos_del_Himno_Nacional_de_Espa.C3.B1a), so it doesn't matter: just move it to en-wiki with a {{PD-US-1923}} and {{notforcommons}}. Once that's done, we can reopen. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 11:54, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It'll have to be uploaded under a different name, the Commons version is used on multiple Wikipedias. —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 3:06pm • 05:06, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- From my last talks with the US Navy Band, they receive sheet music from the government, then fix it up to where it could be played by the band (this is what happened in the case of Montenegro). I still feel having this recording might be questionable (and now we got two, which one is going to be the one that we will keep or not?)

Marcha performed by the United States Navy Band. Marcha Real is the national anthem of Spain. It is one of the oldest national anthems in the world as it was adopted in 1770. It is also one of the few national anthems without words. The composer of the music is unknown to date.

There you go. —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 3:18pm • 05:18, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't this need an OTRS? What are the sources for authorship?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:48, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

~~Grudging support~~Oppose ~~for local~~ either version: the piece is about as boring as national anthems ever get. I cannot endorse such boring music as "among our best work". Tony (talk) 10:03, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
