Wednesday May 18, 2022
When you hear the name Charles Ives, one tends to think of the word cacophony – as in discordant music. The Danbury, CT native created sounds and symphonies that were so ahead of their time that they took the general public several decades to truly appreciate his genius. Now, Ives is considered one of the finest U.S. composers to have ever lived. But the truly amazing part of the Ives story is actually all of the other incredible achievements that he accomplished during his lifetime, well beyond music. The unbelievable story of his exploits is told by Danbury Museum and Historical Society Executive Director Brigid Guertin and the Executive Editor of the Charles Ives Society, Jim Sinclair.
