Discography

About

The first comprehensive Charles Ives discography, compiled by Richard Warren, was published in 1972. In the decades following, Warren, along with staff of the Yale Collection of Historical Sound Recordings, continued documenting newly released recordings of Ives’ music. With support from the Charles Ives Society, Kevin Sherwin completed compiling the discography to include recordings until 2019, and Nicholas Brewer edited and facilitated its online publication and search functions.

This online discography is a comprehensive and searchable list, presented in order of the table of contents listed below. For each composition, recordings are listed in chronological order. The table of contents is based on the structure of James Sinclair’s A Descriptive Catalogue of the Music of Charles Ives, which reflects the current catalogue of recordings of Charles Ives’ music. For more detailed explanations of the discography’s compilation and use of this website, please see the above links to the Preface and Usage Guide.

Notes on the Recording:
Announced as the first broadcast of any Ives composition (March 14, 1938), Ives’ Largo for Strings is performed by the Columbia Chamber Orchestra, conducted by early Ives champion Bernard Herrmann. The orchestra plays the lyrical lines of the composition with noticeable intensity, especially at moments of harmonic dissonance. As well, the ensemble occasionally speeds up and slows down the tempo to heighten the expressive effects of the music.

Text by the composer
Recorded from WNYC broadcast

Notes on the Recording:
The Works Progress Administration sponsored numerous radio broadcasts featuring American music, describing Charles Ives as “among the most original and extraordinary composers of America.” This program includes a live recital featuring Gretchen Gantvoort, soprano and Thomas Weil, piano, performing Ives’ “Berceuse.” In this early Ives recording, the listener can hear slight pauses in Gantvoort’s singing, which create moments of suspense and emphasis within her delivery of the text. As well, she sings with a notably wide dynamic range, as well as a quick, narrow vibrato throughout the piece.

The String Quartet No. 1 is included in this radio broadcast from the 1940s, performed by members of the Columbia Concert Orchestra, conducted by early Ives champion, Bernard Herrmann. This performance of the quartet was also arranged for string orchestra by Herrmann. The recording displays spirited, rhythmical, and expressive playing throughout the movements. To match the musical contrasts over the course of the piece, the orchestra alternates between lyrical and articulate phrasing styles.

Notes on the Recording:
“In the Cage” and “In the Night” are included in this radio broadcast from the 1940s, performed by the Eastman Symphony, with Frederick Fennell conducting. To introduce Ives, the broadcaster says, “one is often startled to observe that the spirit of modernity is not necessarily the exclusive property of the young. The desire to break from tradition is a personal rather than a temporal characteristic… It is only at the present time that his [Ives’] compositions are meeting with general understanding.” In this early recording of Ives’ music, the orchestra plays with dark timbres along with a winding sense of pulse. Notably, the orchestra does not emphasize the complexity of the rhythms and metric changes. Rather, they create a continuous sound and blended rhythmic texture to evoke a haunting musical atmosphere.

Notes on the Recording:
The three movements of Ives’ Third Sonata for Violin & Piano are included on this ca. 1948 radio program of the Mutual Broadcasting System. Violinist Madeleine Carabo and pianist Carol Robinson offer a virtuosic interpretation, with detailed attention to Ives’ expressive indications in the score. Their playing ranges from lyrical to forceful, shifting with the numerous moods of the sonata.

THE SIDE SHOW (Is that Mr. Reilly . . .)
THE SIDE SHOW (Is that Mr. Reilly . . .) (VI-B-66) (348)
Text by the composer, quoting Pat Rooney
Recorded from broadcast of WNYC of recital.

Notes on the Recording:
The Works Progress Administration sponsored numerous radio broadcasts featuring American music, describing Charles Ives as “among the most original and extraordinary composers of America.” This program includes a live recital featuring Gretchen Gantvoort, soprano and Thomas Weil, piano, performing Ives’ “The Side Show.” In this early Ives recording, Gantvoort sings with frequently short, speech-like articulations and a very free sense of pulse. The pianist, Thomas Weil, matches Gantvoort, which articulate and rhythmical playing. Together, these expressive aspects create a feeling of spontaneity and story-telling, complementing the nature of the song’s text.

Text by Harmony Twichell Ives
Broadcast of WNYC

Notes on the Recording:
The Works Progress Administration sponsored numerous radio broadcasts featuring American music, describing Charles Ives as “among the most original and extraordinary composers of America.” This program includes a live recital featuring Gretchen Gantvoort, soprano and Thomas Weil, piano, performing Ives’ “The World’s Highway.” In this early Ives recording, Gantvoort sings with nuanced vocal phrasings that include a flexibility of pulse to complement the musical gestures of the composition. Strikingly, both Gantvoort and pianist Thomas Weil coordinate various immediate fluctuations in dynamics, which highlight the corresponding moments of the text.
