I am wondering if anyone can help me. Is there anyone who knows if Ives's music was recorded in (going on information I have founs so far) about the 1930s on...
{big snip} It was titled simply "Sonata No. 4 for Violin and Piano" (I think it was 4) and it was spread over several 78s. ... This was most likely the...
BTW, if the Ives violin sonatas have caught your fancy (and, as a somewhat experienced Ivesian, I've come to think that these four works are as good a place as...
I went to all six of them. They were all free, and I never again expect to be able to hear so much Charles Ives music in such a short time, and played so well....

Thankyou! I'm not necessarily on the lookout for that exact same (scratchy) recording! Naxos sounds good enough to me. It will be great to re- acquant myself...
Does anyone have the Gregg Smith Singers recording, "New Music Of Charles Ives"? It's out-of-print; Gregg himself emailed me & told me Sony needs to get off...
Annie, I've got it. I'd be glad to make you a cassette tape of it. Contact me privately if that works for you. I'm also hoping to make a compilation of all of...
"...composers that have collaborated with Ives posthumously" That clause amuses me. It smacks of spiritualism, though I don't think you meant it that way....
I suppose the best policy for me would be to observe a moratorium on value judgements and just wait to hear the results. Another variable to deal with is the...
Has anyone heard this new Zappa orchestral recording? http://www.classicstoday.com/review.asp?ReviewNum=7402 Definitely looks interesting. *********** Got...
... http://www.classicstoday.com/review.asp?ReviewNum=7402 ... Yep. I will own it soon. EM is a wonderful group - and FZ is FZ of course! ... Personally I have...
... Henry Cow are different - they got their name from Henry Cowell, Ives's protege. In the 70's and 80's I used to hang out in their circles, Frank Frith,...
... Anne - I can copy my CD's if you 'd like - I don't have the ability to copy from LP to CD. Lemme know (offlist) Frankie np - Ives - Holidays Symphony -...
Got "Sur Incises" by Pierre Boulez a few days ago - had one listen. Wow - some incredible stuff, but it is going to take more than a few listens to grasp what...
Frankie, Boulez and Ives -- now there's a contrast for you! No connections there of any kind, I reckon. Yet, Boulez did an Ives festival when he was music...
... I did not know that - very cool. I would love to hear Boulez talk about his experiences and just music in general - the man has just done so much for...
That's a good interview! I failed to find something like this when I searched. PB accepted a certain degree of public responsibility in his post in New York...
... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hmm... Are you certain that you've attributed that quote correctly? I believe that it should be properly attributed...
Take the quotation marks off. I do recall hearing PB pronounce "primatif". The "amateur" attribution I might have read somewhere, and "Grandma Moses" was my...
Let me join the fray. I can't imagine Bernstein would've ever dissed Ives; I always thought he championed him, and certainly he chose to record and perform his...
No, not Lennie! Pierre may not so much have dissed Ives as treated Ives as an amusing case. Of course, it might come out sounding like disrepect. He often...
... dissed Ives; I always thought he championed him, and certainly he chose to record and perform his works many times--and beautifully.--Annie in NYC ...
Bob, Thank you for pointing this out. Here is a collateral report: David Schiff,The Atlantic,January 1997,The Many Faces of Ives (see paragraph 3) ---> ...
The NY Phil website has a pretty cool Ives page in anticipation of the upcoming shows in May. Check it out, it's pretty cool stuff. I'll be seeing three (3) of...
Anybody here (Scott?) own the Ives 4th CD performed by the Ensemble Modern/John Adams? I still cannot find it available anywhere except the EM site and they...
Have a great time, Frankie! Quart Thanks Quart. I was more than impressed with Juilliard's performance of Ives 4 in January - so I am curious to see what the...
I don't have a copy of the EM / Adams Ives Fourth. But I've heard that it's very good. Scott Mortensen ************************************ "The fabric of...
