UEFA Champions League Anthem

piano accompaniment for SATB choir

Known to set the hearts of many of the world's top footballers autter,
the UEFA Champions League anthem accompanies the ceremony
at the start of all games in the competition and is also played
in the opening and closing sequences of all UEFA Champions League broadcasts.
The music was written by British composer Tony Britten, a graduate
of the Royal College of Music. Commissioned in 1992 to devise a piece
in the style of George Frideric Handel's Zadok the Priest, the iconic recording
of Britten's piece is performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
and sung by the Academy of Saint Martin in the Fields Chorus.
The lyrics mix elements from the three ocial UEFA languages:
English, French and German.
