Anthems and other political and patriotic songs are an important part of the Luso- Brazilian song repertoire. What this article attempts to do is conduct a case study of the Himno / para a Feliz aclamação de S. M. F. / O Senhor D. Joaõ VI composed in Rio de Janeiro in 1817 by Marcos Portugal (1862-1830) which has been recently analyzed and edited by this author from a manuscript that continues to be the only known source.
