I'm the leader of a band that's playing later this month at a couple of basketball games between the Canadian national team and Indiana U. in Toronto and Hamilton, Ont. I need to know what IU's school song is so that I can kludge up an arrangement. (Ours is "The Black and White and Gold", if anyone cares [and certainly nobody here does <hard as we try>]) I have found a (band, no words) recording of "Indiana, Our Indiana". Is that it? It sounds about right. Or is it something like "Back Home Again in Indiana"? Thanks for any and all help. The net helped me find a band arrangement of the national anthem of Yugoslavia last year.

Just Play 'Hail Purdue' trust me, it will go over great (if you do decide to do this, PLEASE make a video tape and send me a copy. Boy would I like to see the look on their faces!) > P.S. I understand Bobby Knight is not coming on this trip so I hope the > team has a backup chairtosser. Ah yes good ole Bobby Knight. Boy what a sore winner/loser. If only I had time to remember all of the antics that I have seen him pull. I say we should send him back to Puerto Rico. |-) Sorry I can't help with the song (words and/or music). Just give the music Dept. at IU a call, Maybe someone there might be able to remember what it is. :-) Sam

They weren't sure of the name of the school song but thought it might be "Hail To Old IU". I hope this helps some. Rea Simpson

preface... Our band is playing at a basketball game between Canada and Indiana. We were looking to pointers to the Indiana school song...

Boy would I like to see the look >on their faces!) I am sure that this song could be performed, in the spirit of international sportsmanship, if (ahem) Purdue University were to send us a small token of their appreciation.

Thanks to all who suggested that "Indiana, Our Indiana" would be more suitable.

Sorry for posting to the net, but lost the address of the original poster.

Lucky thing I'm visiting my brother, Dave Tutelman, since I not only went to
Indiana University, was a music major, but am now a computer programmer.
Yes, "Indiana, Our Indiana" is the fight song, but "Hail to Old I.U." is the
alma mater. It's played to the same tune as Cornell University's "High Above
Cayuga's Waters."
In solfege, it begins: do re mi re do la la sol,
re do ti do re,
do re mi re do la la sol,
re mi fa ti do.
Good luck!
