Dave, this is a wonderful presentation.
The first half, looking at the harmonic underpinnings  is an informative set up to hearing his music in the 2nd half. This was a very colorful selection of Ive's pieces. Broad in its scope.
Very entertaining, interesting; and shines a beautiful,  austere and playful  light on a composer,  who too much of the time is not given his due.
Thanks for posting!

No sign of him here, even though Elliott Carter was mentored by Ives in his youth.
