Description: Amazon review: "The Third is the most charming of Charles Ives' four "official" symphonies; one imagines the French would have been able to perform it - & loved it - during the 1920's. Subsequent research & a better sense of Ives' "sound" cannot be altogether discounted when listening to Hanson's committed 1959 performance; James Sinclair with the Northern Sinfonia on Naxos has a lighter & more deft touch that I believe is closer to what Ives heard in his head. But the inclusion of "Three Places," William Schuman's "New England Triptych," & the rugged Symphony no. 5 by the somewhat neglected Peter Mennin make this a classic classical album. Mercury's close mic "Living Presence" recording is better heard on speakers than through earphones, & was a sonic wonder of the era."
