Illuminations: Charles Ives - American Modernist
Throughout his life Ives was better known for his creativity in structuring life insurance packages in his insurance business than for his musical output. Since his death in 1954 his popularity slowly grew and Ives is now lauded for using such innovative musical concepts as polytonality, aleatory and quarter tones. Callum Moncrieff discovers the life and music of this highly original composer.
