This catalogue of the music of Charles Ives contains 728 entries covering all of the prolific composer's works. James Sinclair's book presents information produced by recent Ives scholarship and generous commentary on each of Ives's compositions. It completes the work begun by musicologist John Kirkpatrick in 1955, when Ives's music manuscripts were deposited in the Yale Music Library. Ives's works are arranged alphabetically by title within genres. Whenever possible, each entry includes the main title and any other titles the composer may have used; the forces required; the duration; headings of movements; publication history; citation of the first known performance and first recording; the derivation of the work, listing music on which it may be modeled or from which it may borrow material; the principal literature treating the piece; and commentary on these and other matters. The catalogue also provides musical incipits for all Ives's extant works, seven appendixes (covering his work lists, 'Quality Photo' lists, his songbooks, a chronology of his life, recordings made by Ives, and his private publications and commercial publishers), three concordances, and four extensive indexes (addresses, names, titles, and musical borrowings).

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. The remainder of the book presents documents that illuminate Ives's personal life. A selection of some sixty letters to and from Ives and his family, edited and annotated by Tom C. Owens, is the first substantial collection of Ives correspondence to be published. Two sections of reviews and longer profiles published during his lifetime highlight the important stages in the reception of Ives's music, from his early works through the premieres of his most important compositions to his elevation as an almost mythic figure with a reputation among some critics as America's greatest composer.

Much interest has been shown in Charles Ives since his death on May 19, 1954. Few composers in the history of music have offered the innumerable problems of analysis and performance that are seen in the works of Ives. Although the importance of this major American composer is now widely recognized, the frustrating complexity of his music has succeeded in discouraging large-scale studies of Ives's compositional characteristics on a musicological level. Ives's transcendental beliefs directly influenced his concepts of freedom in creative expression. For this reason, this book will focus on Ives's indebtedness to Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Thoreau, Horatio Parker ad George Ives. This book begins with an investigation of the New England Transcendental tradition. The Transcendentalists were critical, restless, sensitive and highly sophisticated. They were Utopians 1 who seriously reacted to radical social changes, and advocated progressive opinions. Music was very important to them as an expression of their beliefs, and their musical philosophy greatly influenced the development of Ives's musical thought. The Transcendentalists regarded music as a unique form of communication, a universal truth, capable of penetrating all the barriers of time and space. Furthermore, they viewed music as a means of communicating with one's own thoughts. Ives's philosophical beliefs about musical composition will be discussed with reference to Ives's own writings on aesthetics and music, as well as selected works by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau and others. In addition, Ives's aesthetic concepts are reflected in the structural organization of the above-mentioned piano compositions. It is not possible within the limited scope of this manuscript to present a detailed account of Ives's life. However, there are some biographical considerations and philosophical beliefs that are valuable to this study insofar as they affected Ives's thoughts about music and composition. In particular, the New England Transcendentalists exerted a direct influence upon his concepts of creative freedom and stylistic development. Most books and periodicals have considered the influences of the New England Transcendentalists upon Ives. However, the sum of his philosophical and musical thoughts exist in his own Memos, Essay Before a Sonata, and handwritten notes made in his manuscripts. An American Composer-Charles E. Ives: New England Transcendentalism 3 Gordon Cyr's article, "Intervallic Structural Elements in Ives's Fourth Symphony,"4 presents the Fourth Symphony from an intervallic relationship. The author examines Ives's use of borrowed tunes and the alteration of the basic cell by way of inversion, retrograde, and stretto. Clayton Henderson's dissertation, "Quotation as a Style Element in the Music of Charles Ives,"5 considers the structural role of borrowed elements as a more significant key for understanding Ives's music. Ives adopted much of his material with discernment, using it for its programmatic qualities and as a unifying element from which traditional forms, such as rondo, verse and refrain, ternary structure, and arch designs were evolved most frequently. At present, there are no reliable stylistic analyses and philosophical investigations of Invention, March in G and D "Here's to Good Old Yale," Three-Page Sonata, Song Without (Good) Words, The Anti-Abolitionist Riots, Some Southpaw Pitching, Varied Air and Variations, Waltz Rondo, Study No. 22, The Celestial Railroad. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the salient factors which contribute to Ives's compositional characteristics. 4 Gordon Cyr, "Intervallic Structural Elements in Ives's Fourth Symphony," Perspectives of New Music 10 (Fall/Winter 1971): 291-303. 5 Clayton Henderson, "Quotation as a Style Element in the Music of Charles Ives."

This comprehensive work reflects the renewed interest and recognition of Charles Ives's music, and it gathers into one volume previously scattered and hard-to-find material by and about the composer. The musical and historical significance of one of America's most famous twentieth-century composers is represented in a substantively annotated, discerning and critical bibliography that includes a foreword by the noted Ives scholar, J. Peter Burkholder. The book begins with an explanation of the scope, organization, and rationale of the material presented and provides an overview and discussion of the current status of Ives scholarship. This is followed by a biographical sketch, a catalog of works and performances, and a complete discography of all recordings in print as of 1985. The bibliography consists of four major sections devoted to collections and catalogs, biographical and aesthetic articles, and reviews and critical evaluations of Ives and his contemporaries; the final section, on Ive's work, is arranged according to the genres of orchestral and band music, chamber music, keyboard music, choral and partsongs, and songs, following John Kirkpatrick's widely used manuscript categorization. The annotations on several hundred books, essays, and reviews offer a historical perspective of the critical reception of Ives's music, tracing its development from obscurity to crusade to fad, to its present secure place in the repertoire. The extensive appendixes and indexes provide, in a conveniently centralized format, lists of materials not found in standard indexes or cited in earlier studies; they make accessible many items that appear in relatively obscure journals or archives. This definitive sourcebook will greatly facilitate further study and inspire new research on one of today's most controversial musical figures. It will be of great interest to musicologists, Ives scholars, and students of twentieth-century American music.
