From time to time, the general idea gains currency that national anthems are nowadays an anachronism. According to the critics' arguments, these anthems were the product of a period of awakening nationalism. Today, however, there is wide endeavour to overcome narrow, national ways of thinking and acting, with the great aim of promoting the peaceful community and union of nations. National anthems express love of the fatherland, pride in the native country, and trust in the nation. This highly successful undertaking performed by the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra under conductor Peter Breiner will arouse the enthusiasm of music collectors and promote mutual understanding among nations.
