Such a thoroughly expressive work, dancing around the edges of abstract expressionism but without the… angst. Marvelously interpreted. Virtuosity of musically.

[@justinandmaxgames5472]

My goodness - my favorite of his violin/piano sonatas - performed to absolute perfection.

Favorite moments?

so beautiful

[@ethanhill9460]

I love this performance. I'm meditating when appropriate or I'm tapping my toes when appropriate or I'm just plain impressed by the composition. Ty for the note.

Hay algo que me encandila en aquellos ilustrados de la nación “primera” norteamericana, antes de que se convirtiera en imperio, la inocencia latente en sus ideales. En cierto modo, la música de Ives respira esa “inocencia”. Al hablarle de ello, uno de mis viejos amigos del Vermont, cuya mirada albergaba el encanto de aquellos horizontes, me sugirió hace años leer atentamente a Thoreau y escuchar a Charles Ives con detenimiento si quería ahondar el espíritu del nordeste americano. Durante mucho tiempo pensé que aquel paralelismo era fruto de la fantasía de mi compañero y su apego desmedido al país natal, mas, según fui adentrándome en los diarios de Thoreau, me di cuenta de que aquella fuerza que emanaba de estos tenía que ver con la que celaban muchas de las obras del músico. Más aún, en un párrafo de los diarios que aquel escribiera en Walden sobre la escritura cabal, vislumbré la arquitectura que predomina en las sonatas del compositor. «Frases pródigas, dispuestas como guijarros en la página, a un lado y a otro, y a través, que contienen la semilla de otras frases, y no mera repetición, sino creación». Prodigiosa metáfora.

Pedro Cantero Gracias por el comentario.

Que buen comentario

[@vstill]

Your comment garnered so many up votes I had to have Google translate it for me into English. Fingers crossed, it's still understandable … There is something that enchants me in those enlightened of the "first" American nation, before it became an empire, innocence latent in its ideals. In a way, Ives' music breathes that "innocence." When I told him about it, one of my old Vermont friends, whose gaze harbored the charm of those horizons, suggested years ago to read Thoreau carefully and listen to Charles Ives carefully if he wanted to deepen the spirit of the American Northeast. For a long time I thought that this parallelism was the result of my partner's fantasy and his excessive attachment to the native country, but, as I went into Thoreau's diaries, I realized that that force emanating from these had to do with the that kept many of the musician's works. Moreover, in a paragraph of the newspapers that he wrote in Walden about writing, I glimpsed the architecture that predominates in the composer's sonatas. «Prodigal phrases, arranged as pebbles on the page, from one side to the other, and through, which contain the seed of other phrases, and not mere repetition, but creation». Prodigious metaphor. Not bad for a computer translation algorithm. ;¬)

Grande Don Pedro Cantero!, todo un basado de la comunidad clásica de YT en lengua española.

i'm now listening it the fifth time. in my opinion this sonata absolutely belongs to the masterpieces of the 20th century like fauré's second one op.108, debussy's or ravel's sonata....i'm very excited to discover the other 3 sonatas by ives...

[@eTwCSGO]

Brilliant piece

[@paulamrod537]

I am always very proud to be also American because of this composer. A total individual born in 1974 and was an initiator of the modern as much as Debussy, Stravinsky and Bartok.

[@samlaser1975]

You mean 1874?

[@innocenzobarrera1505]

... come spesso per Ives, sonata sorprendemente bella e originale.

[@nerolux2445]

I love Ives.

[@DavidA-ps1qr]

What an intense and wonderful sonata this is, from the first bar to the last. The musical dialogue between the Violin and Piano is equal to Delius (although nothing like it). A masterpiece.

[@oraculodethoth]

Música maravillosa. Celebro haber descubierto tu canal: no encuentro en él más que un tesoro tras otro. Saludos cordiales.

Gracias por comentar!

[@marcustorquatus]

Splendide ! Merci encore !

Great performance of a first-rate Ives piece...Thanks

[@pelodelperro]

You're welcome. Thanks for commenting!

[@MrBakersean]

Amazing piece beautifully performed and recorded. Thank you for sharing.

[@pelodelperro]

My pleasure. Thanks for commenting!

[@selfunderstandingb8135]

The sonatas have been blessed with several magnificent performances on record, from the old Druian/Sims set to the more recent Fulkerson/Sannon release - the latter I find most convincing in a wonderfully manic way. The Fain sonatas I have heard (2 and 3) are beautiful.

[@selfunderstandingb8135]

Oops, that's Shannon not Sannon

[@nigeldeane-93]

Nice fiddling there - lots of energy! What an enjoyable piece

[@ethanhill9460]

The fiddling stamps work MADE IN AMERICA. The composition is otherwise cosmopolitan and the recording is remarkably as clear as a bell.

[@travismclaurin9419]

Very interesting piece.

[@boryd4927]

Brought here by Viet Thanh Nguyen in some weird ways, love it.

[@chrisingres6221]

excellent live-performance, bravo!!!, i like the way he does the g-string...WOOOOM: very strong and warm sound there: WOW!, and sometimes it's soo enjoyable to listen to other birdcalls than hilary hahn, anne-sophie mutter etc. (the ladies r not bad at all though :D ) ives: NOT easy listening, it takes its tiiiiiime, yes but then....5*, good music, complex, romantic parts, some vienna things i also discovered, funny parts, i had to laugh. sooooooo: MANY THX for uploading all these fantastic pieces of music, pelodelperro (btw: do you like dogs?), your text gives us a good intro (we r still learning, oh yeah!) and i really apprecciate the artwork-things you've chosen. have a nice time, i'm following your channel, chris (from cologne)

[@pelodelperro]

Thanks for commenting. And I do like dogs. At least I like them more than a hangover. Have a nice time too.

[@chrisingres6221]

*****"I like them more than a hangover". hahaha, u r funny! i thought so though your avatar-dog is quite headless... i tell you a funny story: when i was in spain with my pug, (in german we call the dogbreed "mops"), i saw a young girl who also had a pug. so i asked her (for i didn't know the spanish word): "perdón, una pregunta: ?cómo se llama esta raza en español?" the girl looked at me if i was an alien, then she answered: "perro."

[@cehussey]

It should be titled, Sonata for Piano & Violin. That piano part is more difficult than the violin part.
