Hi agawlbb~
Here are a few classical pieces that may be called "patriotic" or oft
"related to Austrian national pride:"
* “Unter dem Doppeladler” (“Under the Double Eagle”), by Josef Franz
Wagner (assigned to the Federal Austrian Army’s 1st Artillery Regiment
No. 2)
* The Austrian national anthem "God Save Emperor Francis" by Joseph
Hayden. For an article about it's history, go to:

* Radetsky March by Strauss Sr. (written for the Austrian army in
Italy in 1848)
* The New Austrian National Anthem, with music originally thought to
be by Mozart, but now thought to have been written by another composer
of Mozart's era. For an interesting article about it's history, please

music for her troops until 1905), go to:
