Synopsis

Amazon.com

Charles Ives (1874-1954) was doing things with his music that was decades ahead of the rest of the world, especially Europe. He wrote works that were almost unplayable, works that intentionally forced keys, rhythm structures, even melodies to intermix. This collection of orchestral music opens with "There They Are!"--a snappy bit of American patriotism if ever there was one. The masterpiece here is an excellent performance of "Three Places in New England" which is riddled with familiar and not-so-familiar folk songs and melodies from the 19th century. Plus, there's the famous clash of the two marching bands. Excellent. --Paul Cook

Patriotic Fervor

Brett A. Kniess | Madison, WI | 05/21/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"David Zinman along with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra provide a convincing recording of three works by American composer Charles Ives. The sound and performance are top notch.If you are unfamiliar with the works of Charles Ives, be fore-warned that his music is rittled with a-tonality, poly-tonality (a result of cross rhythms and melodies) and unusual sounds. His music is not pretty and melodic, it is intense and drammatic; not for the weak at heart.Nevertheless, the performers have unrelentlessly taken strides to keeping Ive's terribly difficult rhythms tight without giving way to de-musicality. In the liner notes, an interview with David Zinamn is printed, giving details into his studies of Charles Ives; a very interesting account of Ives intentions in his music and a glimpse into his view of society and music."
