Queen are known not only for their stylistic diversity, but also for their over-the-top theatrics during concerts and in videos. This helped give them the staying power to have hit songs for over twenty years! One of their biggest, instantly recognised hits is the rock-anthem We Are the Champions, written by Freddie Mercury. This monster hit is now available in an authentic sounding concert band arrangement by Gilbert Tinner.

Queen is niet alleen gekend om hun muziek in diverse stijlen, maar ook om hun theatrale uitvoeringen tijdens concerten en in videoclips. Een van hun grootste hits is het rocknummer We Are The Champions, gescreven door Freddie Mercury. Deze monsterhit is nu beschikbaar in een verbluffend arrangement voor harmonieorkest!

Neben der stilistischen Vielseitigkeit ist das Theatralische und Pompöse eines der Erkennungsmerkmale der Musik von Queen - offensichtlich aber durchaus im positiven Sinne, wie der zeitlose Erfolg ihrer Hits beweist! Ein Paradebeispiel dafür ist die Rockhymne We Are the Champions aus der Feder von Freddie Mercury, die nun in einer neuen, authentischen Blasorchesterbearbeitung von Gilbert Tinner vorliegt.

Emmené par le charismatique Freddie Mercury, le groupe Queen a marqué et marquera encore les temps forts du sport. We Are the Champions connaît un immense succès dès sa sortie, en 1977. Aujourd’hui, on ne compte plus le nombre de références ce titre dans les championnats sportifs mais également au cinéma, la télévision, dans des spots publicitaires etc. Freddie Mercury voulait écrire un hymne rock, un hymne qui survivrait au temps et aux modes, et il a réussi.

We are the Champions scritta da Freddie Mercury è una delle canzoni rock più celebri di tutti i tempi e certamente una delle più rappresentative dei Queen, che la utilizzarono come bis in moltissimi dei loro concerti. Per la melodia trionfale e per il testo del ritornello, We are the Champions viene spesso usata come colonna sonora per celebrare vittorie sportive.
