The Hymn of Panathinaikos or Syllogos Megalos (Great Club) is the anthem of Panathinaikos A.O.[1] It was written in 1958. The music is by Giorgos Mouzakis, a well-known musician and trumpeter of the era, and the lyrics are by George Oikonomidis. Leandros Papathanasiou and the Trio Belcanto and later Giannis Vogiatzis were the singers.
According to the composers, the song was written after a winning game of Panathinaikos, while they left together the Leoforos Alexandras Stadium. Oikonomidis improvised the first verse "Syllogos Megalos..." and Mouzakis sketched a staff on a cigarette pack on the spot. The whistling heard in the beginning and end of the hymn imitates the style of "Colonel Bogey March" from the 1957 film The Bridge on the River Kwai.[2]
