商品簡介
Johnson (music theory, Ithaca College, NY) combines two loves in this study of baseball and music--two loves shared by composer Charles Ives, one of Johnson's early heros. "Ives's love for baseball permeated his entire life and was an inseparable component of his character and his music" (from the introduction). This study delineates how the art and sport of baseball affected Ives and presents analytical and contextual treatments of his musical compositions pertaining to baseball.
