Austria National Anthem and Haydn Year

2009-07-15T18:57:05Z

Maybe I can encourage a little life in this forum by injecting a note
of controversy?

Does anyone know the current Austrian National Anthem?

In this Haydn year is it not time to restore the old anthem?

Flights to Austria

As an Ango Austrian Society we should perhaps take note of just how
hard it is actually to travel between the UK and Austria. Outside
London, Austria becomes one of the remotest countries in Europe!

Peter Gieler wrote recently in “Felix Austria” that he is often asked
how to receive Austrian TV and radio programmes in the UK. He went on
to describe the possibilities for doing this via satellite
