I saw “Faust” in Seattle in 1972 with Norman Treigle as Mephistopheles. The Rumanian singer in the role of Faust was so bad he was booed at the Soldier’s Chorus.

You would LOVE my “naughty” lyrics to the Soldiers Chorus, written during the reign of Chirac.

Booing at the Opera is an old tradition that hearkens back to the Golden Age. It is especially effective when a 300 Pound Violetta (or Mimi) is wasting away with consumption!

In the last years of his life, Zappa formed a frienship with Nicholas Slonimsky, author of the most influential book on harmony ever written and a major player in modern music. Slonimsky was coming to the end of his very, very long life.

I met the 94 year old Slonimsky at a concert in L.A. in 1988, where he was accompanied by his stunning, red-headed teenage great-granddaughter. (They didn't look like that when I was young!) It was a program of Ives, Boulez and Varese conducted by Boulez himself. Zappa might have been there, but I didn't spot him.

Isn't that a switch? In my group of friends we go to Florida to visit the elderly and the young ‘uns live up north. How did you guys get that backwards? Dyslexia?

Well, it’s a long story, but I am the only member of my family in Florida. All the rest are in the Boston Area.

I would rather be lonely in Florida than freezing up north.

A video of Gloria Estefan singing "Oye Mi Canto", or, "Listen To My Song", which is 'disco' but breaks into a pretty good rhumba/rumba.

Slonimsky once said that Charles Ives, “financed my entire career”. Ives, the son of a US Army bandleader in the Civil War, was known as a benefactor of other composers, though he often kept his financial support secret. In 1947, Ives won a Pulitzer Prize for Music and gave the prize money away, saying “prizes are for boys, and I’m all grown up”.

I loved the Charles Ives compositions I was exposed to as a kid, despite their difficulty to perform. The Circus Band march and variations on “America” were favorites, but the Fourth of July movement from his Holiday Symphony is truly awesome. As a lad I had a recording of it with Leonard Bernstein conducting the New York Philharmonic. Ives was the Frank Zappa of his day, Avant-garde, musically correct and an unquenchable sense of humor. His music was barely recognized during his lifetime.

He was an amazing character, an American icon and patriot often cited by Aaron Copeland as an influence. He was also heralded by conductor Bernard Herrmann, Arnold Schoenberg, William Schuman and Gustav Mahler.

Ives was also politically minded. In 1920, he proposed a 20th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution which would authorize citizens to submit legislative proposals to Congress. In his proposal, members of Congress would review the submitted proposals, selecting 10 each year as referendums to be put to popular vote. He had a pamphlet printed at his own expense proclaiming a need to curtail “The effect of too much politics in our representative democracy”, but like his music the proposal was largely ignored during his lifetime.

In a bizarre twist, Ives stopped composing 27 years before his death in 1954. His wife, Mary said that one day in 1927 he came downstairs with tears in his eyes, saying he could compose no more, because “nothing sounds right.” It’s how I feel when I watch the nightly news.

Back on Thanksgiving weekend, I posted Ives’ Second Symphony with an analysis. It’s my favorite piece of his.
