Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Song

Memorial song

The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Song (Chinese: 蔣公紀念歌) was written to commemorate the Generalissimo and late President Chiang Kai-shek of the Republic of China. There are two songs: the second song was written by Hwang Yau-tai or Huang Yu-ti (Huang Youdi, 黃友棣) in 1975, who later also wrote Chiang Ching-kuo Memorial Song in 1988.

"Jiang Gong Memorial Song" used to be sung in schools and was also popular with military song competitions; when Chiang Kai-shek died, this song was also played for one month as an act of mourning. However, with the democratization of politics, this song is no longer included in current music textbooks, and schools no longer teach this song. However, on Chiang Kai-shek's birthday and the Veterans' Day, veterans sing this to express their condolences; this song is also played on folk festivals.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Initial version

The initial version was written by 秦孝儀 (Chin Hsiao-I) and 黃友棣 (Hwang Yau-tai) shortly after Chiang's death. However this version was officially replaced by the officially adopted version written by Li Chung-he (李中和) and Zhang Ling (張齡).

Compared to the officially adopted version, this version was written in vernacular language and was longer in context. The melody was also completely different.
