"The music of Charles Ives is a cultural sourcebook of America at the beginning of the 20th century. He took the evangelical hymns, the college songs, the melodies of the dance hall, the tunes of small town bands and the sounds of village life and shaped them into musical works that are at once familiar and of startling originality. Long considered to be unplayable, his musical juxtapositions would prove to be enormously influential and inform such kaleidoscopic inventions as Van Dyke Parks' Song Cycle and The Beach Boys' Smile. Ives today is regarded as 'a greatly original, immensely creative composer, who gave new dimensions to the vast and varied heritage of America¹s music.' A true 'American Original' who marched to a different beat. Ives audience stretches beyond classical into the modern avant-garde fields of Cage, Varèse and Stockhausen. He is very collectable and none of the pieces that comprise our edition have ever been re-released or restored digitally."
