Charles Edward Ives Charles Ives was born in the small manufacturing town of Danbury, Connecticut, on October 20, 1874, two years before Brahms finished his First Symphony. During the Civil War his father George Ives had been the Union's youngest bandmaster, his band called the best in the army. When the war ended George had returned to Danbury to take up the unusual trade, in that business-oriented town, of musician. As a cornet player, band director, theater orchestra leader, choir director, and teacher, George Ives became the most influential musician in the region. Yet while Danbury prided itself during the 1880s in being called "the most musical town in Connecticut" (that in large part due to George Ives's labors), people still viewed the profession with little understanding or respect. That situation, which would have been the same in most American towns in the 19th century, had its impact on Charles Ives. Still, his family was prominent, noted for extravagant personalities and (except for George) a gift for business. like father, like son

CHARLES EDWARD IVES I n 1922 Charles Edward Ives self-published a discreet, dark blue-wrappered volume which contained a very personal testament. None of the 114 SONGS (as the edition was titled), which Ives had selected, edited, and ordered with great care, had ever before been issued. In the Afterword to the collection, the composer defended this sally into print after years of public silence as an opportunity to evade a question somewhat embarrassing to answer: "Why do you write so much which no one ever sees?" Throughout the thirty years of a creative life which left a legacy of highly original orchestral, piano, choral, and chamber works as well, Charles Ives continued to compose songssome 150 by the time he abandoned composition altogether in early 1920's. Publishing them, Ives quipped, was an act of cleaning housean ambivalent effort, both apologetic and proud, to lay before a public he distrusted the autobiographical leaves of his soul. Born in Danbury, Connecticut in 1874 to a prominent and respected New England family (generations of Iveses and Brewsters had distinguished themselves in commerce, law, and civic affairs), Charles E. Ives inherited his love of music from his father George, who had been the youngest Union bandmaster in the Civil War and who had passed his later years organizing Danbury's musical life. The sounds of the cornet George played and the brass bands he led, the unorthodox harmonic exercises he practiced at home, the tunes of

ARTISSIMO.GR - We just love good music ! CONTENTS ENGLISH LANGUAGE GREEK LANGUAGE INITIAL PAGE ... MUSIC COMPOSITIONS CLASSICAL MUSIC : COMPOSERS : MODERN ERA (1915 - 1945) CHARLES IVES (1874-1954) NATIONALITY Charles Ives was an American. IN GENERAL He is the biggest experimentalist of the newer American music. Even if he had had serious music studies - his father was a band conductor and had encouraged him a lot with his experimentations - finally he dealt professionally with the assurance business and he composed music only in his free time! His music was unknown even in his own country and only little before his death there existed certain small recognition. His work is clearly underestimated, as he explored a lot of artistic spaces and a lot of techniques in the composition that other composers - even the Europeans - were to search only several years after. To the end of his life he had been tired enough to compose any more, so he only dealt with the already existing material of his creation. STYLE It looks like his music is sometimes hearing distant and sometimes simply impressive. Sure it does not sound like any other composer's because it is a product of a series of serious experimentations in terms of rhythm (use of free rhythm and superimposition of different musical meters), harmony (he reached to polytonality and atonality - also he used intervals of fourths of the tone), instrumentation (usage of extraordinary combinations of instruments and placement of the musicians at various places so that can change completely the acoustics of piece), use of "free score" (that leaves margin to the performers for changes over his produced music) as well as lots of other new experimentations. The effect of this composer - initially small because of the small distribution of his work - is continuously increased in our era.

Peter Burkholder, 1996 [464 p.] This volume shows Charles Ives in the context of his world in a number of revealing ways. Five new essays examine Ives's relationships to European music and to American music, politics, business, and landscape. J. Peter Burkholder shows Ives as a composer well versed in four distinctive musical traditions who blended them in his mature music. Leon Botstein explores the paradox of how, in the works of Ives and Mahler, musical modernism emerges from profoundly antimodern sensibilities. David Michael Hertz reveals unsuspected parallels between one of Ives's most famous pieces, the Concord Piano Sonata, and the piano sonatas of Liszt and Scriabin. Michael Broyles sheds new light on Ives's political orientation and on his career in the insurance business, and Mark Tucker shows the importance for Ives of his vacations in the Adirondacks and the representation of that landscape in his music.

John Cage "Nature is prepared to welcome into her scenery the finest work of human art, for she is herself an art so cunning that the artist never appears in his work. Art is not tame, and Nature is not wild, in the ordinary sense. A perfect work of man's art would also be wild or natural in a good sense. (...) Art can never match the luxury and superfluity of Nature. In the former all is seen; it annot afford concealed wealth, and is niggardly in comparison; bu Nature, even when she is scant and thin outwardly, satisfies us still by the assurance of a certain generosity at the roots."

UNSUNG SONGS Abide with Me, by Charles Ives (1874-1954) Ives's song text is the fervent old hymn Reverend Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) wrote at the very close of his life. When these words were coupled to the hymntune Eventide , composed by William H. Monk in 1861, the result was so successful it became a much loved staple of many turn-of-the-century protestant hymnals. Lyte's lines are cast in reasonably regular iambic pentameter with the unvarying rhyme scheme AABB. Yet Monk's music abundantly demonstrates the problem of all strophic songs and hymns: the musical contourfit to the opening verserepeats unchanged while, in subsequent verses, the location of the poetic caesuras and important words vary. Actually, one can't help noting that Monk's melody doesn't fit even the opening verse of Lyte's text very well (the misaccent on the opening syllable and similar trangressions in the next two lines are ready clues). Was this what prompted the precocious Charles Ives to use the text for his hymn-like song in 1890? Apparently not. It seems neither composer was much concerned with poetic subtleties, for Ives's tune doesn't fit the words well either, and shows similar faults in the very same places. Whatever his purpose, Ives refitted the text with a melody that probably didn't seem quite right at the time. It still tweaks some ears with what seem like 'wrong' notes. It's just that he uses a scale which has both a lowered and a natural seventh, and the result is a tonal tune with a savory mixolydian flavor and enough strangeness about it to unsettle most first-time listeners:

The middle section creates another contrast as the solo violin introduces the new theme while tempo and complexity grow. This beautifully balanced piece concludes with a brief restatement of the first theme. Bibliography Back to Top Samuel Barber (1910-1981) Knoxville: Summer of 1915 "We are talking now of summer evenings in Knoxville, Tennessee in the time that I lived there so successfully disguised to myself as a child." This single movement work falls into three main sections. The rocking motive heard throughout provides a unifying element, and the sounds of Agee's poetrystreetcar, locusts, water hoseslend themselves readily to musical representation. Listen particularly for the calm created when the singer speaks of "my father who is good to me," which leads into the intensity of the prayer to "remember them (his people) kindly in their time of trouble; and the in the hour of their taking away." The full orchestra restates the opening theme before the reassuring rocking takes the child off to bed, who gets drowsier, and doesn't know who he is.

Ives, Charles (1874 - 1954) The American composer Charles Ives learned a great deal from his bandmaster father, not least a love of the music of Bach. At the same time he was exposed to a variety of very American musical influences, later reflected in his own idiosyncratic compositions. Ives was educated at Yale and made a career in insurance, reserving his activities as a composer for his leisure hours. Ironically, by the time that his music had begun to arouse interest, his own inspiration and energy as a composer had waned, so that for the last thirty years of his life he wrote little, while his reputation grew. Orchestral Music The symphonies of Ives include music essentially American in inspiration and adventurous in structure and texture, collages of Americana, expressed in a musical idiom that makes use of complex polytonality (the use of more than one key or tonality at the same time) and rhythm. The Third Symphony, for small orchestra, reflects much of Ives's own background, carrying the explanatory title Camp Meeting and movement titles Old Folks Gatherin', Children's Day and Communion. The Fourth Symphony includes a number of hymns and Gospel songs, and his so-called First Orchestral Set, otherwise known as New England Symphony, depicts three places in New England. Chamber Music The first of the two string quartets of Ives has the characteristic title From the Salvation Army and is based on earlier organ compositions, while the fourth of his four violin sonatas depicts Children's Day at the Camp Meeting.
