"Inno Nazionale" is the national anthem of the Republic of San Marino. It was written by Federico Consolo, an Italian violinist and composer, and replaced Giubilanti d'amore fraterno as the national anthem in 1894. This national anthem is one of a few without official lyrics (along with Spain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kosovo), and is therefore simply called "Inno Nazionale" (National anthem). It is little known and scarcely heard, but the "Inno Nazionale" is regularly played in the streets of the City of San Marino by the musicians of the Sammarinese Armed Forces during national and religious festivals.
