Originally composed for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah, "Call of the Champions" is John William's fourth original composition commissioned by the Olympic Games. Premiered at the opening ceremonies on February 8th, the fanfare begins with a choral proclamation of "Citius! Altius! Fortius!" (Faster! Higher! Stronger!), the Olympic motto. The piece went on to be used again for the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece during the carrying of the torch. With it's rousing fanfares and soaring melodies, "Call of the Champions" remains a staple in the Olympic Games musical repertoire!
