Charles Ives

Variations on America

Lowell Liebermann's arrangement of this Ives classic brings this set of variations to the piano keyboard from the original organ setting. Liebermann; himself an accomplished pianist; has penned well-received solo works of his own (Album for the Young; Gargoyles; etc.) and is an excellent choice to arrange the Ives for 88 keys. This is a classic show piece for the somewhat advanced pianist; a crowd pleasing treatment of the beloved anthem; which presents the familiar melody in new and unusual ways.
