Great news! I also found the following at the Naxos site as well. Looks like
our man Sinclair has been busy, indeed. All of this news renews my interest
in CEI. I hope the Swedes "get" Ives, but I'm sure Sinclair wouldn't accept
anything less than stellar. It's spring now and time for a heavy Ives run
very soon..........
New Charles Ives Recording with James Sinclair
January 24, 2008
From January 8 to 10, conductor James Sinclair and the Malmö Symphony
Orchestra recorded a new Ives programme for Naxos. The recording will be
part of an ongoing cycle of Ives' complete orchestral music. The Overture in
G minor dates from 1899, while Thanksgiving Day is one of the four movements
that make up the work A Symphony: Holidays in New England. The General
Slocum, in a première recording, commemorates a shipwreck in New York
harbour which claimed over 1000 lives. Other works recorded previously will
also form part of this album: A Yale-Princeton Football Game, Postlude in F,
and Fourth of July.
James Sinclair is the Executive Editor of the Charles Ives Society and
arguably the world's leading authority on the composer. Sessions took place
at the Concert Hall of the Malmö Symphony in Malmö, Sweden. The
producer-engineer was Sean Lewis.
