You need to understand that in 1936 there was Wagner-pathos and pointed marches. The artistic director Franz Baur-Pautoulier wonderfully got completely away from that. He was a dear friend who just passed away April 27, 2011.
Jim McKay comments in his book "My Wide World" that the arrangement of the Olympic Hymn for the 1972 Summer Games was a very disappointing one. In short, he wasn't impressed. Maybe because it was to be performed in a lighter and more spirited way.
よく、このような古いVTRを残し、また、放映して下さいましたね。
深く感謝します。
ミュンヘン五輪、大変な事件もありましたが、古き良い時代の五輪でもありました。
みなさま、いつまでもお元気で。

Although I usually like to hear the choir singing, this version is fine. Where did you get this?

@pookerville I like this instrumental version, it is so different to the very very slow versions of current games, sung by a chorus.
This was the spirit of 1972!

@pookerville I love more spirited songs. When I'm sad i usually listen to them and that songs make me happy with spirit.
