- Charles Ives' Three Places in New England (Orchestral Set No. 1) was written mainly between 1911 and 1914, but with sketches dating as far back as 1903 and last revisions made in 1929. The work is celebrated for its use of musical quotation and paraphrasing.
The movements (in Ives's preferred slow-fast-slow sequence, longest first and shortest last) are:
I. The “St. Gaudens” in Boston Common (Col. Shaw and his Colored Regiment)
II. Putnam’s Camp, Redding, Connecticut
III. The Housatonic at Stockbridge
Lasting just under twenty minutes, Three Places in New England has become one of Ives's most performed compositions. It exhibits signature traits of his style: layered textures with multiple, sometimes simultaneous melodies, many of which are recognizable hymn or marching tunes; masses of sound, including tone clusters; and sudden, sharp textural contrasts. Each “place” is in New England. Each is intended to make the listener experience a unique atmosphere, as if there. To this end, the paraphrasing of American folk tunes is an important device, providing tangible reference points and making the music accessible despite its avant-garde chromaticism. Three Places in New England aims to paint a picture of American ideals, lifestyle and patriotism at the turn of the 20th century.
Goodness me. Unbelievable visions. What a great work of art

Love this piece
I dont know what recording this is but it is exceptional. God bless you Charles Ives!
'Twould be nice to have the orchestra and conductor's names shown above. (I take it, from the comments, that this is the great Cleveland Orchestra under C v. Dohnanyi...?)
The score is a different version than the performance. The cello solo takes the piano line on page 4 measure 4, for example. Great piece, though.
00:01 І ч. "Сент-Годенс в Бостонському парку"
9:05 II ч. "Табір Патнема в Реддінгу, штат Коннектикут"
15:12 III ч. "Гусатонік біля Стокбриджа"
Leopold Stokowski conducted (probably) the American Symphony Orchestra in these pieces, which I recorded onto a cassette during the eighties, I have very good memories of this recording. Could this version be his?
If I read one comment that uses any of those oft used words to describe Ives like ... he is well ensconced in the pantheon of modernists. And rightfully so.
Stuart Sègan -- Quite right! Even so, I hope I'll not unduly repent memorializing here the debt Ives owes to his illustrious Schwäbisch pedagogue and muse....whose name is for some reason seldom mentioned anymore nowadays: Dr. rer. nat.

Whose performance is this? I really like it: in particular, a slightly less wafty and undirected tempo in the first movement manages to hold the piece together more (though perhaps at the expense of depicting the exhaustion of spectral soldiers -- this sounds more like Boston Common itself). And in the final movement, the conductor really takes the piece's origins as a song into account and distinguishes melody from uneasy harmonic background -- once again, greatly improving a sense of direction and purpose. Really effective!
I re-posted after a takedown. Does anyone know whose performance this is? I'd love to know.
James Sinclair with the Orchestra New England.
