The first volume of Sony Classical's reissue project commemorating the 150th anniversary of the birth of Charles Ives, the great American composer whom Leonard Bernstein praised as \"the man who single-handedly started his own musical revolution in a Connecticut barn,\" is the 5-CD \"Charles Ives - Anniversary Edition. Anniversary Edition\". The first in a series of Sony Classical reissues commemorating Ives' 150th anniversary is a 5-CD \"Charles Ives - Anniversary Edition,\" a box set of five LPs originally released by CBS Records 50 years ago in 1974, including package design, label, and manual. One of Columbia-CBS Records' great achievements in the second half of the 20th century was to record almost all of the works of Stravinsky, Schoenberg, Webern, and other composers who left their mark on the 20th century, and to make their works widely available on vinyl.Goddard Lieberson, who served as president twice, was himself a composer who had studied at the Eastman School of Music and was a founder of the American Composers Union, and this project was promoted at his behest. The composer whom CBS also promoted for comprehensive recording was Charles Ives. Lieberson, who himself was almost the first person to write a widely publicized article about Ives, described his impression of the composer when he met him in 1939: \"He generously presented me with a number of scores of his own compositions - many in pencil. -even the autograph score of the first movement of Three Places in New England, which contains a lot of pencil writing. Ives knew Stravinsky, Schoenberg, and the then-fashionable Hindemith, but he had no interest in discussing the works of such composers. Ives' music was not the product of modernist or avant-garde fads, but of his own internal necessity. (...) He was a really complicated guy, a real weirdo in the best sense of the word---the kind you hardly ever meet nowadays. He was a real weirdo in the best sense of the word, the kind of weirdo you hardly ever meet nowadays,\" he recalls.(1\/3) Sony Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony Classical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50383362294049,"sku":"196588859724","price":62.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/196588859724.jpg?v=1727682347","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ca\/products\/196588859724","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
