Summary

Charles Ives Reconsideredre-examines a number of critical assumptions about the life and works of this significant American composer. Gayle Sherwood Magee offers the first large-scale rethinking of Ives's musical development based on the controversial revised chronology of his music. Using as a guide Ives's own dictum that "the fabric of existence weaves itself whole," Magee portrays Ives's life, career, and posthumous legacy against the backdrop of his musical and social environments from the Gilded Age to the present. Gayle Sherwood Magee is an assistant professor of musicology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
