Die Fahne hoch is a marching hymn which can be heard from recordings from Nazi Germany. The song was also the co-national anthem of the Third Reich, along with the Deutschlandlied. One day in Stockholm I performed a waltz arrangement of the tune on an accordion as a street musician. Born in Sweden in 1944 and 1945 - my mother during the war, my father a “peace-time child” - my parents danced in a hall.
