Australians and New Zealanders commemorate the ANZAC Day public holiday on April 25th every year to honor the bravery, and sacrifice, of the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), and those who have served their country in time of war. Fanfare for ANZAC Day was commissioned by the Australian Embassy in Washington DC for the ANZAC Day Service at the National Cathedral on April 25th, 2005.
