Abstract
For nearly forty years, the world of American music has sustained a state of astonishment over its discovery of Charles Ives. That he is America's Greatest Composer and one of the three or four greats of twentieth-century music (along with Schoenberg, Stravinsky, and possibly Bartok or Webern) is generally conceded, yet a fervor still surfaces when his champions announce, as Harold Schonberg did in 1974: “Nobody has had that kind of vision, that personality. … Nobody, nobody ever, and least of all any American composer, has achieved his combination of unorthodoxy, passion, bigness, sweetness and nostalgia.” To characterize his importance, his Americanness, his style, or his place in world and national culture, he is offered to us as the Walt Whitman of American music, our Emerson, our Thoreau, Mark Twain, Melville, Frank Lloyd Wright, Norman Rockwell, James Joyce, our modern Beethoven, “our Washington, Lincoln, and Jefferson” rolled into one. The enormous number of performances of Ives's music during the last ten years or so (there are more entries for Ives in recent Schwann and BMI orchestral catalogs than for any other American composer and almost any other modern one) has forced disbelievers to pay attention. When the New York Times “Music” column reported in 1968, under the breathless headline “Suddenly a Flurry of Ives,” that his piano works were being performed at home and abroad, the flurry had scarcely begun. For the Ives Centennial in 1974 and the nation's Bicentennial in 1976 brought even more performances, many recordings, three major Ives festivals, a musical based on his life, conferences, exhibits, and a spate of books—three by scholars with American Studies credentials, one of which was a revisionist biography designed to refute an “Ives Legend.”

Only one article on Ives has ever appeared in the <italic>American Quarterly</italic>, official journal of the profession, and few of the doctoral dissertations on Ives have had American Studies sponsorship. Stephen Foster, Woody Guthrie, and Bob Dylan appear to earn more attention in American Studies than Ives, who ought to be as much a part of our curriculum as Whitman. Or Winslow Homer, say, or Frank Lloyd Wright. By now, we ought to have developed a whole body of Ives criticism, including discussions to relate his views and practice to the ongoing debate over American Studies methodology and discussions to relate the sexism of both Ives and his biographers to the ongoing debate over the treatment of women in the arts. A larger body of interdisciplinary criticism might have provided a “long foreground” for the works by Perry, Rossiter, and Perlis, the Ives <italic>Memos</italic>, and the papers of the Ives Centennial conference. (How can we expect students to evaluate Rossiter's attack upon the “Ives Legend,” for example, if they do not even know a legend exists?)</p><p>Perhaps it's the music barrier. Educators in American Studies have learned by now not to be afraid of teaching about architecture and painting in the context of American culture—they have been doing it at least since Lewis Mumford. They have not yet been intimidated by the culturologists in our field into banishing high literature from the American Studies classroom. They feel quite secure in calling Whitman America's Greatest Poet even after Donald Hall announced (<citation id="ref009" citation-type="other"><italic>New York Times</italic>, <month>03</month> 9, <year>1968</year></citation>) that, being in the discipline of American Studies rather than literature, some of them couldn't tell a good poet from a good third baseman. Yet these same educators, many of them, <italic>are</italic> intimidated when confronted by a music score. I do not think they should be, or at any rate that they are justified in using their fears to keep Ives and American music from their students.</p></fn><fn id="fn04" symbol="4."><label>4.</label><p>Ives is a natural for courses in departments of Humanities, English, or Art that deal with source study or comparisons with stream-of-consciousness and realistic writing, abstract expressionist painting, jazz and aleatoric improvisation. He can be compared to such figures as Picasso, Joyce, and Bartok in studies of the relation between an artist's native context and the modernist means he employs. For courses in Religious Studies programs, in addition to the many works making use of hymn material, Ives's short piece “The Unanswered Question,” paired with his major work, <italic>The Fourth Symphony</italic>, provides material for an excellent unit of study for exploring the several ways “answers” are attempted to the fundamental “question” asked of life. No work is better than the <italic>Concord Sonata</italic> for introducing the religious dimensions of Transcendentalism.</p><p>Two of Ives's often quoted statements confirm that he belongs as much to the interdisciplinary areas of American Studies and Humanities as he does to departments of music. The first was selected to be engraved on the official medallion of the Ives Centennial in connection with the Ives Mini-Festival at Lincoln Center, New York City, and may be found quoted as epigraph to the chapter on Ives in Gilbert Chase's pioneer study, <citation id="ref010" citation-type="other"><italic>America's Music</italic> (New York: McGraw-Hill, <year>1954</year>), p. <fpage>668</fpage>:</citation></p><p>The future of music may not lie entirely with music itself, but rather in the way it encourages and extends, rather than limits, the aspirations and ideals of the people, in the way it makes itself a part with the finer things that humanity does and dreams of.</p><p>The second statement originally appeared in a letter to his friend Henry Bellaman, reprinted in <citation id="ref011" citation-type="other"><italic>Musical Quarterly</italic>, <volume>19</volume>, No. 1 (<month>01</month> <year>1933</year>), <fpage>47</fpage>:</citation></p><p>The fabric of existence weaves itself whole. You cannot set art off in the corner and expect it to have vitality, reality and substance. There can be nothing <italic>exclusive</italic> about a substantial art.</p><p>Ives's contempt for the “Mus Docs” and music academies of his day where music was taught “by the metronom” becomes apparent very quickly from his writings. No doubt he would have approved the current trend <italic>within</italic> departments of music away from exclusivity and toward the study of the art in larger contexts, a trend of considerable significance to American Studies and other interdisciplinary areas.</p></fn><fn id="fn05" symbol="5."><label>5.</label><p>My reference is to Howard Boatwright's definitive characterization of the sonata: “For some composers, one work, more than any other, may become a channel through which the streams of philosophical concept, musical technique, and style flow in singular unity.

The failure to tell her story is the greatest oversight in the biography by Rossiter, who insists upon Ives's extreme isolation—“the key to an understanding of his place in American culture lies in his extreme artistic isolation”—as if his wife did not really count. Rossiter and others do not even quote Ives's own statement clarifying her role, or they quote only that part of it acknowledging the role of his father: “One thing I am certain of is that, if I have done anything good in music, it was, first, because of my father, and second, because of my wife. What she has done for me I won't put down, because she won't let me. But I am going to put down this at least:—After any of these musical friends of mine (mentioned above, and others) had left, she never once said or suggested or looked or thought that there must be something wrong with me—a thing implied, if not expressed, by most everybody else, including members of the family. She never said, ‘Now why don't you be good, and write something nice the way they like it?’—<italic>Never! She</italic> urged me on my way to be myself! <italic>She</italic> gave me not only help but a confidence that no one else since my father had given me.” Quoted in the program book for the centenary album, <italic>Charles Ives: the 100th Anniversary</italic> (CBS, M4-32504, Inc.,/1974).</p></fn><fn id="fn08" symbol="8."><label>8.</label><p>The standard biography is <citation id="ref020" citation-type="book"><name><surname>Henry</surname></name> and <name><surname>Cowell</surname><given-names>Sidney</given-names></name>, <source>Charles Ives and His Music</source> (<publisher-loc>New York</publisher-loc>: <publisher-name>Oxford Univ. Press</publisher-name>, <year>1955</year>)</citation>, an excellent work but necessarily limited and cautious. Amendments to some of the interpretations, especially about Parker's role in Ives's career, and expansion of others may be found in Perry's brilliant analysis and Wooldridge's highly personal and intriguingly idiosyncratic study, but the most controversial reinterpretation is Rossiter's 1974 biography, <italic>Charles Ives and His America</italic>. Rejecting what he feels to be a standard interpretation of Ives's significance, Rossiter portrays him, in Edward Guereschi's words (in <citation id="ref021" citation-type="other"><italic>Best Seller</italic>, <month>03</month> <year>1976</year></citation>), “as a pathetic, crippled victim of the genteel tradition, his vaunted independence more a matter of psychic withdrawal than a proud rejection,” as lonely and frustrated, forever afraid of being emasculated, unable to reconcile his careers as composer and insurance man. Rossiter argues that Ives's extreme artistic isolation (see note 7, above) “arose not only from his desire to write experimental music, but also from his desire to be a good American.” The crux of Rossiter's argument is suggested in this passage: “On the one hand, he learned that he must be masculine; and this commitment caused him to be ashamed of all art music, to regard it as effete, unmanly, and undemocratic. On the other hand, he learned that he should conform to the conventional pattern of middle-class life; and this commitment caused him to live out his life isolated among Philistines, cut off from other avant-garde artists because he regarded them as Bohemians” (pp. xii–xiii, 315).

So is pop. … But certainly there has been no breakthrough in the classical establishment.” In the light of the contrast between Stravinsky's own popularity and capacity for self-advertisement as against Ives's relative obscurity and personal shyness, the reference is startling.

Among the many discussions of Ives's contemporaneity, see the sources cited in item 3, 18, 22, and 23 of the “Little Anthology,” note 6. Joseph Eger, struck by the comparison between Ives and the Beatles, writes in his rather curious analysis that they share “a naive, childlike openness, and an individualism spiked with missionary zeal. … The Beatles, in love with life, have expressed all this with [the same] pungent wit, good humor, and unerring intuition for contrast and eclecticism. … Ives's music—defiant, dissonant, individualistic, <italic>romantic</italic>—evidently strikes a parallel chord and supplies a similar exigency in today's music world.” Eger ranks Ives below Gershwin, on a par with Elgar and Norman Rockwell.

Taken from a series of nineteenthcentury children's books in which the character is insufferably well-mannered, proper, and priggish, Rollo became a name Ives used in margins and essays (and personal letters, including one to President Franklin Roosevelt) whenever he wanted to attack or represent the essence of conservatism, gentility, effeminacy, and conformity. The term was usually used satirically, but when Ives tells the violinist to “go to town” in a passage where genuine sentiment in a hymn tune is required, Rollo speaks for his century and Ives betrays a certain affection for him.

That he is America's Greatest Composer and one of the three or four greats of twentieth-century music (along with Schoenberg, Stravinsky, and possibly Bartok or Webern) is generally conceded, yet a fervor still surfaces when his champions announce, as Harold Schonberg did in 1974: “Nobody has had that kind of vision, that personality. … Nobody, nobody ever, and least of all any American composer, has achieved his combination of unorthodoxy, passion, bigness, sweetness and nostalgia.” To characterize his importance, his Americanness, his style, or his place in world and national culture, he is offered to us as the Walt Whitman of American music, our Emerson, our Thoreau, Mark Twain, Melville, Frank Lloyd Wright, Norman Rockwell, James Joyce, our modern Beethoven, “our Washington, Lincoln, and Jefferson” rolled into one. The enormous number of performances of Ives's music during the last ten years or so (there are more entries for Ives in recent Schwann and BMI orchestral catalogs than for any other American composer and almost any other modern one) has forced disbelievers to pay attention. When the New York Times “Music” column reported in 1968, under the breathless headline “Suddenly a Flurry of Ives,” that his piano works were being performed at home and abroad, the flurry had scarcely begun. For the Ives Centennial in 1974 and the nation's Bicentennial in 1976 brought even more performances, many recordings, three major Ives festivals, a musical based on his life, conferences, exhibits, and a spate of books—three by scholars with American Studies credentials, one of which was a revisionist biography designed to refute an “Ives Legend.”</abstract><relatedItem type="host"><titleInfo><title>Prospects</title></titleInfo><titleInfo type="abbreviated"><title>Prosp.</title></titleInfo><genre type="journal" authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/JMC-0GLKJH51-B">journal</genre><identifier type="ISSN">0361-2333</identifier><identifier type="eISSN">1471-6399</identifier><identifier type="PublisherID">PTS</identifier><part><date>1979</date><detail type="volume"><caption>vol.</caption><number>4</number></detail><extent unit="pages"><start>1</start><end>58</end><total>58</total></extent></part></relatedItem><identifier type="istex">38A375A842D7B2BC2C5243273BF09FB4A8FDA2BF</identifier><identifier type="ark">ark:/67375/6GQ-HGD8CC5L-T</identifier><identifier type="DOI">10.1017/S0361233300002799</identifier><identifier type="PII">S0361233300002799</identifier><identifier type="ArticleID">00279</identifier><accessCondition type="use and reproduction" contentType="copyright">Copyright © Cambridge University Press 1979</accessCondition><recordInfo><recordContentSource authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/XBH-G3RCRD03-V">cambridge</recordContentSource><recordOrigin>Copyright © Cambridge University Press 1979</recordOrigin></recordInfo></mods><json:item><extension>json</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>application/json</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/document/38A375A842D7B2BC2C5243273BF09FB4A8FDA2BF/metadata/json</uri></json:item></metadata><serie></serie></istex></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
