BrabanconneThe Brabançonne is the national anthem of Belgium. The anthem has both a Dutch and a French version, for the two major languages of the country.
| |||
According to legend, the Belgian national anthem was formed in September 1830 by a young revolutionary called Jenneval[?], who read the lyrics during a meeting in the cafe l'Aigle d'Or.
Historically, the Brabançonne was indeed composed by Jenneval, whose real name was Alexandre Dechet[?]. He was an actor at the theatre where in August 1830 the revolution started which lead to the independence of Belgium from the Netherlands. In the war of independence, Jenneval was killed. The music was composed by François Van Campenhout[?] and the song was first performed in September 1830.
In 1860, the text and music of the song was adapted by the prime minister, weakening Jenneval's attacks on the Dutch Prince of Orange.
