I think there is no question but that Ives is America's greatest composer. I'll go one further and say that the case can be made that he was the greatest composer of the 20th century.

You aren't getting ... ( 4 months ago by 101Bottles)
You aren't getting the importance of this piece. It's written the same year Mahler wrote his 9th, and Schoenberg wrote his first atonal piece. Ives had no idea all this was going on, yet he composes the perfect musical depiction of the tonal/atonal struggles that composers were going through. There's three layers, the strings (tonal), the trumpet (the question) and the winds (the atonal "answers"). There's a reason the trumpet "asks" one last time and there's no answer. Sorry about your arm.

If you say you hate ... ( 3 months ago by trumpet4life)
If you say you hate this song, you are DEFINITELY not educated well in music! This song, with the theory behind it, is by far one of the most influential pieces to ever be played. The messege it conveys, as well as the sound that comes forth, is actually one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard in my life! I arranged this for trumpet, flute quartet, and organ, and performed it at my senior trumpet recital! Everyone LOVED it!!

this is what my teacher said from my music class:
1 the trumpet asks the questionm
2 the flutes respond but don't really answer
3. the strings are like wallflowers
it has to do with his fathers death and how they use to play trumpets at the pond together

My high school's chamber orchestra along with a trumpet, oboe, clarinet and another flute and I are playing this piece at the State Conference this year.
I'm incredibly excited. :] Absolutely beautiful.

One of the greatest pieces of music ever written. That I've heard at least. It's just so... powerfully delicate... however paradoxical that is. I adore this piece.

Thank you
When I saw it ... ( 1 month ago by Hamgammy)
When I saw it performed by The Markham Symphony Orchestra, the Trumpet was in the balcony behind the audience, the flutes were on the stage, and the strings were behind the curtain, invisible to the audience, but still audible. Apparently, this was the way Ives had intended it to be performed. It truly was altogether a different but powerful experience, to not only hear this piece of music, but to witness it performed in such a manner!

still i know some guys who are really into music, but wouldn't like this music at all. but i agree in the sense that you can educate yourself into music, but i'd prefer to call it a developping taste, rather than education. when i was a teenager (now i'm 23 :P ) i didn't like led zeppelin, now it's one of my favourite bands haha
