With this innovative analysis of the music of Charles Ives, Philip Lambert fills a significant gap in the literature on one of America's most important composers. Lambert portrays Ives as a composer of great diversity and complexity who nevertheless held to a single artistic vision. "Philip Lambert's book is a fine study, well organized, meticulously executed, comprehensive, fascinating, and engagingly written."-Richard Parks "An excellent book for theoreticians and serious students of musical structure and analysis."-Choice
