Chuck Nessa Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 This arrived early evening, so it is ready for the morning. Interesting to compare it to the vinyl set from 50 years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two sacred pieces are not on the same level as J.S. Bach's pieces. If you are deeply into 18th century mid-German baroque church music, pretty much indispensable, if not, consider.

HutchFan Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 4 hours ago, Referentzhunter said: Can you tell me what this man means to American music culture ? Well, this is an ENORMOUS question! I would say that Ives occupies a very UNIQUE place in American musical culture -- because some regard him as one of the most important (perhaps THE most important) "classical composer" that America has ever produced -- while others regard him as something of a crank, an amateur who specialized in outrageous effects. I suppose it's obvious that I align with the former rather than the latter. If you haven't seen it, you might want to explore the site that I built in Ives' honor. It's quite old now; I haven't touched it in nearly 20 years. But most of the information is still relevant. https://www.musicweb-international.com/ives/ Exploring the site will give you a better sense of why I hold Ives' music in such high regard.

Thank you for your time ... could be one of those composers that aren't popular but did compose with integrity. I have to listen to more of his stuff to form an image.
