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

History
The Ives Center was born in 1974 - the centenary year of Charles Ives' birth - with a July Fourth celebration. On that day, 7,000 people heard Leonard Bernstein, Michael Tilson Thomas, and the American Symphony Orchestra perform an all inspiration from the American scene. It echoes the sounds of our hymns, spirituals, band music, ballads, and even college cheers. His musical genius led Bernstein to call him "The Beethoven of the 20th Century." In 1984, the idea of a permanent memorial to Ives became a reality with the construction of the gazebo-like stage rising up majestically out of the pond. Musical Fair America, a two-day music happening was presented, including 18 different musical styles. In 1989, the late Marian Anderson was honored with a historical musical evening for an artist whose beautiful voice was matched by her dignity and courage. The Marian Anderson Foundation, Inc. was subsequently formed to raise funds to award emerging artists and continue to honor Miss Anderson. During the past 18 years, The Ives has been witness to more than 300 top American and international performers from Bob Dylan to Isaac Stern. More than $11 million in donations and private contributions has been invested in creating and enhancing site facilities, especially in the stage area and audience seating. Approximately 400,000 people have attended our summer concert series, special events for children and affordable family entertainment showcasing the talents of our area youth and local artists.

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:

Charles Ives Remembered
An Oral History
Vivian Perlis
Foreword by J. Peter Burkholder
Interweaving photographs, concert programs, scores, and drawings with the texts of more than fifty interviews with family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues, Charles Ives Remembered is a vivid memory portrait of an enigmatic American composer, told in the voices of the people who knew him best. Charles Ives (1874-1954) was publicly an insurance executive but privately a composer whose eccentric works and paradoxical life would intrigue, perplex, and inspire generations to come after him. Moving from Ives's childhood and years at Yale to his business and musical careers, the memories and reflections assembled in this Kinkeldey Award-winning volume provide a multifaceted and humanizing view of an American musical icon. " Charles Ives Remembered is a classic of American music literature. The Ives of these remembrances emerges as a deeply human, generous, and intensely private person. The depth of his philosophical thought and the astonishing vision of a new musical language are all here in Vivian Perlis's interviews. We are indebted to her. If American composers want a model of wit, humility, and utterly fearless artistic invention, the Charles Ives who is brought to life in these pages is indeed the right choice." John Adams , composer "In the twenty-first century, Ives's stature as America's most profound visionary composer continues to grow. It is so important to again have access to these essential sources which allow us to understand him as a man and as a part of our nation's cultural history."

Charles Edward Ives Charles Edward Ives (1874-1954)
Known for his independence from musical fads and his flair for experimentation, Charles Edward Ives was truly a native son of Danbury. His father George, who had served as a Civil War band leader, was Charles' most influential teacher and had engaged himself in various musical experiments. Thus it was that Charles interwove fragments from traditional patriotic marches and hymns with the unconventional techniques acquired from his father. Unfortunately, Danbury residents and Americans in general were not receptive to this native son. When several of his orchestral works premiered in New York, Los Angeles and Boston during the 1930's, the audiences were openly hostile. The bulk of Charles Ives's music was composed during the years between 1896 and 1916. During that time span, he graduated from Yale (1898), formed a very successful insurance company with Julian Myrick (1907), and married Harmony Twichell (1910). It was not until well after he stopped composing that a changing public revised its assessment of his music. Finally, in 1947 Charles Ives was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for the Third Symphony he had written 40 years earlier. By then a wealthy man due to success in his insurance business, he gave away the $500 prize money.
