Its participation in the celebrations for the “Bicentennial Angioiano” which took place in the Verdi Theatre in Sassari in 1996 raised a great deal of success. During this performance, the popular hymn by I. F. Manno “Su Patriottu Sardu a sos Feudatarios” sung by the soprano Rosy Orani was accompanied by the launeddas on music by the Goccius; the launeddas then performed the Marseillaise hymn (the French anthem).
