Background: Charles Ives's work as a pioneering polytonalist is perhaps better remembered today than his song output, but throughout his long composing life his most personal musical expressions are to be found in what may best be called the genre of the 'art song'.

These range from traditional 'lieder' (setting such familiar poets as Heinrich Heine and Nikolaus Lenau), through English-language 'songs of the period' (Kipling, Keats, Bulwer-Lytton), to pioneering 'pop songs in the modern idiom', often to texts of Ives's own devising. All show a degree of craftsmanship which makes one wonder why many of these songs are not better known.
