Variations on America by Charles Ives

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.
