The Composerworks has been working with BBC Sport to place some of its composers' music on to the BBC's coverage of the Rio Olympics.

The music includes a range of music genres - from Brazilian to anthemic-style cues - which will accompany those great sporting moments to come.

It will be played at various points across the BBC's daily 'action round-ups' and the BBC coverage begins this evening.

Composers Jode Steele and David Wainwright had their music tracks featured by BBC Sport during the Wimbledon semi finals and finals on BBC 1 and BBC 2.
