Maas, Martha, 1934-. Charles Ives oral history, 1968-1979 (inclusive).

Title: Charles Ives oral history, 1968-1979 (inclusive).

The Charles Ives Oral History was the first documentary oral history of an American composer. Interviews with 60 people who knew and worked with Charles Ives were conducted between 1968 and 1971, and this project was the impetus for the founding of Oral History, American Music. In the interviews, family members, friends, neighbors, business associates, and musicians reminisce about one of the most significant artistic figures of the twentieth century. The project formed the basis of the award-winning book by Vivian Perlis, Charles Ives Remembered: An Oral History (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1974, and subsequently reprinted). The Ives oral history complements and gives added dimension to the Charles Ives Papers, a collection of Ives's personal papers and music manuscripts, in the Irving S. Gilmore Music Library at Yale University.
