Review:
REVIEWS "Charles Ives Remembered: An Oral History found a wide and enthusiastic audience when it appeared in 1974, and was awarded the Kinkeldey Prize of the American Musicological Society. Thanks to the University of Illinois Press, it is now back in print and accessible to a new generation of readers as well as its original fans. Over the intervening years, the book has become recognized as a classic of its kind, and the current reprinting will surely not be the last." --Chamber Music ADVANCE PRAISE "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." -- Michael Tilson Thomas, music director of the San Francisco Symphony and artistic director and Founder of the New World Symphony "A marvelously orchestrated portrait of this utterly singular American." -- The New York Times
