Why do performers *always* feel it necessary to declaim Ives' notes in the scores? They are clearly there for the benefit of the performer, and are not to be sung or spoken. But everybody seems to do it. 'Hear the trombones!' is clearly only for the performers, and to declaim it you have to move it!

Great music... her English diction needs work, though. Sorry.

@Epogdous Thanks very much!

"we boys" sung by a lady is quite odd.

@SeladorCellardoor Because it's *always* fun!

The solo piano part in 6/8 (at like 1:21) sounds exactly like the prologue to west side story. just throwing that out there.

I agree. Short expression markings like that shouldn't be spoken. The first time I heard that lame 'Hear the trombones!' it made my flash creep! Imagine a pianist declaiming every note and quote written in Satie's score...brrrr... =]]
