I never tire of viewing this. And I'm neither an Arkansas alum nor an Arkansas native. My son is in the 2nd row of cellos. The then-new conductor Haas from New York City really knew how to win over the locals in his first concert.

Die hard OU fan here, but the Arkansas fight song is so amazing! I could legit listen to this all day!!

[durindagammill]

I was a UofA fan from the womb. My grandson is a 5th generation Razorback on campus. This song means so much to my entire family and still gives me chills when I hear it. I go to SONA faithfully and even at 74, this got us going like no other composition!!!

[texasboy]

As a Texas fan I always like the Arkansas fight song. Crazy how them and Texas are somewhat similar.

[rumilb]

Behold, the most beautiful piece of music ever orchestrated.

[momofslp]

I never get tired of watching this. It is one of my favorite renditions of the fight song.

That trombone gliss at 1:23 gives me chills

[musicmaniac]

i have fallen in love with the xylophone player

So I’m not an Arkansas fan at all, but I played in the Maroon Typhoon which is the marching band at Jones County Junior College in Ellisville, MS. Jones uses this song as their fight song. Many great memories playing Euphonium on this piece of music. That said, I absolutely love this arrangement! My wife was a mallet percussionist and she’s going to be blown away when I show her this video! Thanks for the upload!

Absolutely stunning!!!! Nice freaking job here 👏 🔥🔥🔥🔥I can't believe I'm just now seeing this! Go Hogs

[Nobodyimportant]

My Mom works at Notre Dame so I'm a Fighting Irish fan but my Aunt works at U of A so I love the Hogs too, and Arkansas Fight always gives me thrills down my spine. WOO PIG! SOOEY!

Hit that line, Hit that line, Keep on going,

Move that ball right down the field.

Give a cheer, Rah! Rah!

Never fear, Rah Rah

Arkansas will never yield.

On your toes Razorbacks to the finish.

Carry on with all your might.

For it's A-R-K-A-N-S-A-S for Arkansas,

Fight, Fight, Fi-i-ight.

[QueensOfDares]

I love this!! Haha, proud to be from Arkansas!

I wish I could have an mp3 of this to wake up to every morning.

[justusmack]

The conducting the crowd with the claps is awesome. Woo Pig Forever.

[Mike-szc]

Love this. Very different twist to the iconic piece. Great job and Go Hogs!

[RollOnToVictory]

A whole concert on college fight songs i orchestra arrangement would be the best thing ever.
