About This Release

Recorded for EMI Classics, this set pairs Charles Ives’s intimate songs with his orchestral sets — Marni Nixon’s lyric soprano, John McCabe’s pianism and Ensemble Modern under Ingo Metzmacher frame Ives’s early-20th-century American modernism. Expect hymn tunes colliding with polytonal clusters, abrupt metric shifts and art-song intimacy amplified into orchestral clangs; the performances emphasize clarity and rhythmic bite rather than romantic smoothing.
