Hello everyone!
I am planning on having a recital in July with my students. Due to the fact that Canada Day will have just passed, I thought it would be good of me to prepare a couple of unofficial anthems of Canada to perform. Meaning, if there were some songs out there that would encapsulate Canada, please list them here!
Please keep in mind that it should sound good without the words (ie, unfortunately Classified’s, “Oh Canada” will not work) and hopefully be appropriate for all ages.
Looking forward to any suggestions, many thanks in advance!
Absolutely adore Land of the Silver Berch https://youtu.be/7zDTdKRqZ9g
I have vague memories of that from my childhood that were totally lost to me until listening to that again now. Good song.
Oh that’s what this song is called! Thank you so much!!!
Originally by the Arrogant Worms, but Captain Tractor’s version is superior (Come at me, bro)
And of course no Canadian list would be complete without :
How about the actual anthem? I don’t understand why you disqualified it.
I want to expand their horizons.

Anything from Mike Ford, no idea about how it sounds without words.
