Summon the Heroes

Album by John Williams & Boston Pops Orchestra

Summon the Heroes is an album by American composer John Williams, released in 1996. The music is orchestral and ceremonial in character, employing broad symphonic writing and fanfare-like gestures that draw on Williams's cinematic language, and as a commission for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games it exemplifies his continued work in large-scale ceremonial and film-oriented composition during the 1990s.
