Upon its recording in the spring of 1984, it finally made its debut at the Bergamo stadium on the 1st of April that very same year as the team’s walk-in song: the official “Forza Atalanta” anthem, originally performed by Marino Magrin -who donned the Nerazzurro shirt for six years from the 1981/82 campaign to the 1986/87 season- together with the “Enzo & Beppe” orchestra and the Chorus from the Atalanta Club of Valgandino, celebrates its 40th anniversary this year.

To commemorate such an important milestone, the “Forza Atalanta” anthem was played on Monday 15 April at the Gewiss Stadium after the warm-up prior to the home league match against Hellas Verona.

Back in 1984, while Marino Magrin composed the lyrics, the anthem was then set to music by the “maestro” Alessandro Poli together with Conti and Guerini. It was then the “Amici del Club Valgandino” Chorus who completed the work, by punctuating in unison the perfect rhymes and stanzas  in the “Luciano Zanetti” recording booth.
