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', through English-language 'songs of the period', to pioneering 'pop songs in the modern idiom', often to texts of Ives's own devising.
