I always knew it by LBJ then I heard it when they started the Hill country reporter. Sadly I don't think it's played much outside of Texas.

Having grown up on the East Coast, I only heard this song for first time a few months ago. I think this orchestra does it the best. Absolutely beautiful and uplifting melody. Texans have reason to be proud of this one for sure.

My 2X great uncle served in the Iron Brigade (19th Indiana Vol Regiment) for 3 years. Wonder what was more dreadful to listen to, this or the sound of musket and artillery fire in battle? The only saving grace of this marching song is at the end when you hear the strains of the great “Battle Hymn of the Republic”.

At the beginning, there was a reference to Peter and the Wolf that the audience laughed at. And then there was the thing with the mixing of Wagner's Flight of the Valkyries with O Holy Night, that they should have laughed at. Stunning actually.

The way to have gotten a good laugh out of the audience for O Holy Night would be the entire horn section donning horned helmets before they started to play.

Because the clarinetist was playing a few bars of the "Alfred Hitchcock" theme. Just to show how talented this composer is the way he fit that theme in the middle of a Christmas song!
