"Call Of The Champions" by John Williams

[+ azdr0710]

many here will recognize this theme from the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake....several versions available via youtube, but here's one conducted by Williams himself in the historic Tabernacle on Temple Square in SLC with the International Childrens Choir and, of course, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.....

 

if you need some pick-me-up or motivation, go full volume and full screen!

and here's a grainy version of the performance at the Olympics themselves with fireworks and the whole bit....I believe the IOC doesn't allow original broadcasts, or something, so this rough version is all we have
