one of the coolest traditions at the University of Illinois, where ANYONE in the audience who hears their fight song may stand and sing their fight song with the choir.
It really shows the class and tradition of the BigTen schools.
I've been attending the Dad's Day concerts since I was little and now I'm a member of the Trumpet Studio
HAIL TO THE ORANGE!!!!!! ILL-INI!!!
This is tremendous. I am an alum of Purdue, played in the All American Marching Band and played all of these songs (except Nebraska). The Big Ten has unquestionably the best fight songs in the country. Nice to see the that Illinois Glee Club is every bit as classy as the Illinois Marching Band was when we visited back in 2004.
Nebraska is the newest team to join and plus they suck
@@SteveWillisIII ok that’s what my friend Jeff say 😊
I sang Bass with the group, 2012-2014. Just missed this concert by one semester. What a fantastic group, would love to go have a listen again!
fantastic honoring of memorable school songs from around the big 10. they sound great.
Great job, Illinois! I'm a Buckeye and your version of our alma mater brought tears to my eyes. Of course, then I immediately gagged as you sang TTUN's song....
We should be grateful Universities created these marvels in that era. If they were created today they would be insipid.
2021 Extended Version of Big Ten Medley
I sang in Illvmgc 1983-86. I wish I would have known about this concert. Great memories. Colorado educators convention and going to Ann Arbor were highlights. Larry Perlman
Larry, you didn't hear about this? What a shame. My boys had a youth hockey game, but I had to go to this. So I took the train down on Thursday for a couple days of practice. Practiced, watched Chanticleer which had a former Clubber, Ben Jones, and we had an after-party with them Thursday night. After Friday's practice, I hung out with Paul Castree and several other mostly Other Guys from the '80s at Murphy's were we sang after eating lunch in the afternoon. Then I came home Friday evening. Missed the actual concert. I'm Brad Doty in case you didn't recognize me in my picture.
No, but I bet it was a blast. I wonder if with the Big 10 realignment if they have had to add the songs for Nebraska, Maryland, Rutgers, etc...
I have lived in Kansas since graduating and didn't stay connected with the group.
The Michigan one was good
Great job Illinois
On, Wisconsin!
Go Green baby
Honestly, I think these guys performed Carmen Ohio even better than the OSU glee club did
The OSU Men's Glee Club won the "Choir of the World" competition in Wales in 1990. Notre Dame won it the following year.
Hello to anyone in the Ill. Glee Club in the early to mid-seventies. I sang bass and would love to hear from anyone out there (especially Dave O.). (You can simply reply to this post.) I worked as an overseas professor for many years (when this concert occurred), and a transfer in location may have prevented me from learning about this concert. God bless you guys, especially anyone reading this.
A few guys were early with the sh sound in "Mi -- chigan for chappies". Oooo Mr. Olson would have snapped at you in rehearsal for that.
Super version of Carmen Ohio at 4:28.
Wanna hear Michigan Glee Club's second verse of Carmen Ohio? It's rather obscene.
wish I could have participated!
Thanks, TMH. I'll accept that compliment on behalf of generations of Clubbers. Can't speak for the Marching Illini, as I never made it into that august group.
Hail to the victors. Go Blue.
Gross! I’m a buckeye for life
Michigan sucks!
Why do Michiganders never say "Wolverines"??? They should change their name to the Michigan Blue.
@@hustonnagy3332 You should hear the '80s Michigan Glee Club's "2nd verse" for Ohio State's alma mater. LOL
🎵Hey-Hey, The Michigan for Chappies on Your Way!🎵
What about Purdue? The old gold and bla-CK ,our friendship may she never la-CK. He was such a stickler for final consonants! And diction. A marvelous man was he.A class act.
Are you referring to Mr. Olson? Dean William Olson?
I wish there were lyrics in the description because unless it is a song i’ve heard before, I can’t even understand what they’re saying half the time
Ski-U-Mah !!!
Go bucks
Very well done! Go Bucks!
Why are they singing your Alma Mayer I thought the fight song is across the field
Ever faithful, ever true. Thus we raise our song a-nuKE. Oh, oops, that's the infamous second verse that had the 'k' sound on anew.
Go U Northwestern!
With our banners flying we will cheer you all the time!
Go Hawks!
Sweet Victory (500 Subscribers Special)
So, which song is after Purdue?
Go U Northwestern
Hail to the lionz
WE ARE
@4:28 go bucks
That’s you guys alma matter
How come they never did buckeye battle cry, across the field, or on Wisconsin
On Wisconsin
Ugo Lam if that wasn’t on Wisconsin, what was the one they did after Nebraska hail varsity?
@@hustonnagy3332 For both Ohio State and Wisconsin they did their alma maters instead, Carmen Ohio and Varsity.
They were singing alma maters not fight songs
@@mikedemenchuk7717 Iowa’s was the Iowa Fight Song, not the alma mater.
I've never sung them, as I went for the first two practice days for this concert, but had to leave that Friday to coach my boys' hockey game. Apparently the Club also sings the alma maters for Pedd State (Hail to the Lion) and Nebraska (Hail Varsity). These must have been Dr. Coleman's choices, as the extra Big Ten teams started entering during his tenure.
Wow. Packed house..
Eh the Nebraska one would have been better if it was Dear Old Nebraska U instead of Hail Varsity
I liked it, it's really hard to find a vocal version of Hail Varsity, it's mostly just the band recording.
i think i missed rutgers fight song
Rutgers was not in the Big Ten when this was performed in 2012
Extended Version
@@williamdavenport9824 why are they singing Ohio state and Wisconsin Almere matter and Wisconsin Elmer matter
@@gracepuckett9653 You'd have to ask the guy who wrote the Big Ten Medley. I think it was in the 1960s, but don't really know and I don't know the name of the arranger. We've always sung the alma maters for Wisconsin and OSU.
@@gracepuckett9653 Apparently they also do the alma maters for Pedd State and Nebraska.
The one they did before Indiana, I’m guessing that was LSU fight song
Northwestern's
LSU is SEC 💪
Is that where you learned geography?
Why would you think LSU was ever part of the Big Ten Conference? Later we do MSU - Michigan State.
@@Baritone45 Well, apparently, they will now need to learn the Fight Songs or Alma Maters of not only Rutgers and Maryland, but Washington, Oregon, USC and UCLA. It seems that they may need to do an entire concert of just the Fight Songs!
How come they only play the Ohio State alma Motter and not the fight song?
Did the same with Wisconsin with playing Varsity instead of On Wisconsin. As for doing those schools’ alma maters instead of fight song, my best guess would be for a change of pace.
@@johncoyle8551 yeah when I first Heard them doing Indiana, our Indiana, I thought they were playing the alma mater because it was Slower than the song is actually supposed to be.
That's not Ohio State's fight song. That's its alma mater song. "Across the Field" is Ohio State's fight song.
camellane33 Who said it was Ohio State's fight song? We've always known it was the alma mater.
I'm familiar with all three. A previous poster said "That's not Ohio State's fight song" as though it made some sort of difference. Not every song in the Medley is a "fight song." Carmen Ohio is, as you point out, the alma mater, as is "Varsity" for Wisconsin.
I bet you're a real blast at parties! I won't take you seriously because you decided to pass judgment & use foul language.
I thought yiur fight song was buckeye Battle cry
Carmen Ohio >>>>> Ohio State Fight Song
ILL...
