One of the greatest pieces of music ever written. That I've heard at least. It's just so... powerfully delicate... however paradoxical that is. I adore this piece.

My high school's chamber orchestra along with a trumpet, oboe, clarinet and another flute and I are playing this piece at the State Conference this year. I'm incredibly excited. :] Absolutely beautiful.

this is what my teacher said from my music class: 1 the trumpet asks the questionm 2 the flutes respond but don't really answer 3. the strings are like wallflowers it has to do with his fathers death and how they use to play trumpets at the pond together

When I saw it performed by The Markham Symphony Orchestra, the Trumpet was in the balcony behind the audience, the flutes were on the stage, and the strings were behind the curtain, invisible to the audience, but still audible. Apparently, this was the way Ives had intended it to be performed. It truly was altogether a different but powerful experience, to not only hear this piece of music, but to witness it performed in such a manner!

i don't see what education got to do with taste for music... i like it anyway, with or without the theoretical background
