victory fanfare
Champion's celebratory music
A victory fanfare is a short, triumphant musical flourish played to celebrate a win or achievement.
The term comes from video games, where completing a battle or quest triggers a brief celebratory tune—most iconically in the Final Fantasy series.
The phrase now extends beyond gaming to any celebratory moment: I finished my taxes and heard a little victory fanfare in my head.
