Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Charles Ives," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Charles Ives in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Charles Ives when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Charles Ives, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more

Excerpt: A Symphony: New England Holidays, also known as A New England Holiday Symphony or simply a Holiday Symphony, is a composition for orchestra written by Charles Ives. It took Ives from 1897 to 1913 to complete all four movements. The four movements in order are: The movements coincide with each season; winter, spring, summer, and fall, respectively. While together these pieces are called a symphony, they may be played individually and thought of as separate works. As Ives dictates in his very own Memos: There is no special musical connection among these four movementswhich leads me to observe that quite a number of larger forms (symphonies, sonatas, suites, etc.) may not always necessarily form, or were originally intended to form, such a complete organic whole that the breath of unity is smothered all out if one or two movements are played separately sometimes. Holiday Symphony exemplifies Ivess varied, unique use of dissonance that gave his works a more dynamic range of emotion. Each expresses its particular scene and feeling the mingling of stylistic voices, the meta-style, that had become second nature to Ives. They all contain the shared pattern of splicing introverted slow music and extroverted fast music. Charles Ives got the idea to write a holiday symphony during the summer of 1905. He wanted to write each movement as if it were based on a grown mans memory of his childhood holidays. Here are melodies like icons, resonating with memory and history, with war, childhood, community, and nation. Ives constructed these movements based on personal memories from his past, including his father, George Ives...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=11467381 ... Read more

Extrait : Three Places in New England (Orchestral Set No. 1), en français Trois endroits de la Nouvelle-Angleterre, est une suite de trois mouvements pour orchestre composée par Charles Ives. Elle fut écrite durant une longue période de temps (les premiers croquis remontent à 1903, alors que les dernières révisions datent de 1935), toutefois l'ensemble fut conçu principalement entre 1911 et 1914. La pièce est célèbre pour son usage de citations et paraphrases musicales. Three Places se compose de trois mouvements dans un ordre lent-rapide-lent : Dans L'ordonnance des trois mouvements le premier est le plus long, et le dernier est le plus court; une exécution complète du morceau dure entre quinze et dix-neuf minutes. Il existe quatre versions de l'œuvre, pour orchestre de chambre ou symphonique l'original date de 1914, et trois révisions en 1929, 1935 et 1974. La version la plus courante est celle de 1935. Éditions : Mercury music C'est une des œuvres de Charles Ives les plus jouée par les orchestres. Elle présente la plupart des caractéristiques de son style : textures superposées, avec de multiples mélodies simultanées, dont beaucoup sont des airs reconnaissables, hymnes et marches militaires ; des masses sonores, et tone-cluster ; et des contrastes de texture soudains. Chacune des Three places est intitulée selon un lieu dit de la Nouvelle-Angleterre. Les mouvements sont conçus de telle manière qu'ils incitent l'auditeur à ressentir l'atmosphère de chaque endroit. L'utilisation par Charles Ives des airs folkloriques américains est particulièrement importante et renforce cet effet, car ils fou...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Charles Edward Ives (October 20, 1874 May 19, 1954) was an American modernist composer. He is widely regarded as one of the first American composers of international significance. Ives' music was largely ignored during his life, and many of his works went unperformed for many years. Over time, Ives came to be regarded as an "American Original". Ives combined the American popular and church-music traditions of his youth with European art music, and was among the first composers to engage in a systematic program of experimental music, with musical techniques including polytonality, polyrhythm, tone clusters, aleatoric elements, and quarter tones, foreshadowing many musical innovations of the 20th century. Sources of Charles Ivess tonal imagery are hymn tunes and traditional songs, the town band at holiday parade, the fiddlers at Saturday night dances, patriotic songs, sentimental parlor ballads, and the melodies of Stephen Foster. Charles Ives, ca. 1889Charles Ives was born in Danbury, Connecticut in 1874, the son of George Ives, a U.S. Army bandleader in the American Civil War, and his wife Mary Parmelee. ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=66283 ...
