Somebody should use this piece to accompany images from the Hubble or the James Webb telescopes. The combination would be amazing!

[@insertclevername4123]

I recently saw an orchestra use this as a lead-in to Holst's The Planets, which featured images from satellites, probes, landers, etc. of the various planets. For this piece, the image was of the night sky from some canyon or other where there wasn't a lot of light pollution. I love Hubble images too, but this music combined with a sky full of stars and a sliver of the Milky Way was extraordinary.

[@GMahlerVerehrer]

Eine großartige Darbietung eines der gehaltvollsten musikalischen Werke existenzialistischer Ausprägung. Die Antworten auf die Frage nach dem Sinn der Existenz, nach dem Verhältnis von Subjekt und Kosmos werden immer obskurer, verworrener, unbegreiflicher, je weiter man dringt, und ersterben letztlich im Nichts. Ein wunderbares Tonstück.

[@ctfamily40]

Like a lot of Ives' music, this is sometimes conducted by multiple conductors, because it is written in different time signatures, at different tempi for different sections of the orchestra. They opted to only use one conductor and have the players take care of it. So it may look like the first flute is just rocking out, but he's really conducting his section with his body, which is necessary for them to be together in this particular piece.

The cameras never found the solo trumpet. It is supposed to he some place off the stage, as are4 the strings. The most effective I've heard was with the strings playing invisibly in the wings, the trumpet sitting half-way up the center aisle in the audience, and only the flutes on stage. The conductor was with the strings, the trumpet was on his own, and I conducted the flutes Only once have I seen it followed by "Central Park in the Dark", which Ives made clear in his published program notes, was an answer to the "Unanswered Qjuestion". One year when Masur was Music Director with the NYPhilharmonic, he did the "Unanswered Question" to open the concert, followed it with Beethoven's 9th. This was in the Cathedral (?) of St. John the Divine in Manhattan. He also used the American Boychoir as part of the chorus to achieve a unique clarity in some passages.

Ives's composition is quite brilliant and inspiring. I knew his name and composition on the national radio broadcast. I also love to listen to rock and roll music like Irish rock band U2. I noticed that the opening synthesizer introduction to their hit tune "Where the streets have no name" is close to this. The sounding is very modern and fresh for me.

I've heard this piece several times, but have only just realised it's by Ives. He's a composer I've read a bit about, but never really come to terms with. I rather like this one though.

[@pedroberoes49]

All i can think about while listening to this deeply cerebral piece is how many "answers" humanity has come up to try to answer the question that the trumpet poses, why are we here. Religion, God, money, power, spiritual assention, heaven, hell, nothing, everything are all equally valid to believe but none are really the truth, the truth really is that there is no truth and life is whatever u decide its about.

[@alvarothomasmosquera5123]

Interesantísima versión con la orquesta desagregada. Colocar la trompeta y las flautas en palcos diferentes (como se hacia en San Marcos -Venecia en épocas creo que de Schūtz), es una exploracion sonora sugerente. Además coherente que esta NO RESPUESTA que la obra propone y carga de misterio...La cultura Vietnamita sigue sorprendiendo. No importa grabar el que se cruzan asistentes...inclusive mostrar que al final se valora al asistente que retira del atril la partitura del Director principal.. excelente interpretación.

@@paulsomers6048 Modernism was from the 1890's to around world wars I/II. Perhaps that is what she means by modern. If so, she would be right, this is the time in music where composers broke all the rules.

[@pricepdx]

Geneviève DPTR Le titre de l'oeuvre est La question sans Réponse.. le fond consiste en cordes qui représentent le silence des druides. La trompette pose une question (La Question eternelle de l'existence) à laquelle les bois (flutes) essaient de répondre, sans y réussir. La trompette continue à poser la question, et les bois deviennent de plus en plus frustrés car ils n'arrivent pas à donner une réponse. Après quelques reprises la trompette pose la question une dernière fois; les bois renoncent et restent en silence. Quelle oeuvre meveilleuse, non?

[@tdixon]

Um, no?! He is leading his section. They are not in tempo with the strings, they have their own tempo. It's meant to be done with multiple conductors, but the solution they use here is for the section to be un-conducted. The tempo has to come from somewhere, so that is what the principal flute is doing. He's not being a show-off, he's not making it all about him, he's not being arrogant! He is keeping his section in time, as a good leader should in this scenario. Want everyone in the orchestra to be still? Then use a second conductor and take that pressure off the principal flute. But it's not his fault the management chose not to do that.

[@Marco_Venieri]

the theme of the movie Alien is inspired by this.
