Hymne À L'occasion Du Centenaire De La Confederation Canadienne = Anthem For The Centennial Of Canadian Confederation

The Hymne à l'occasion du Centenaire de la Confédération canadienne was produced in 1967 as part of the official celebrations marking the hundredth anniversary of the Canadian Confederation. Commissioned to reflect the dual linguistic heritage of the nation, the work features lyrics written by the acclaimed Canadian poet and diplomat Robert Choquette, intended to capture the spirit of national unity and historical continuity during a year of widespread patriotic fervor.

The record was issued on the Centenia label, a boutique imprint established specifically to commemorate the Centennial year, and bears the catalog number C-1001. Designed to be an artifact of its time, the composition leans into the formal, celebratory orchestral arrangements common to mid-century public commemorative works, though it remains a relatively obscure collector's item today compared to other mass-market Centennial memorabilia produced that year.
