...always popping up in Ives's music--and so might something entirely new, some quarter-tone creation uncorrupted by respectability or qualifying compromises. They'd both have to meet the same standards, though. They could be lumped together, and if the juxtaposition sounded funny--Ives wrote a great piano trio with a second movement labeled TSIAJ, for "The Scherzo is a Joke"--the joke was on neither the popular tunes nor the stringent lyricism, but on the pedants who'd have liked to keep them separate.

The band sailed into the familiar chords of the immortal "Sweet Jane...

Oliver III-recognized one of the trio as Senator Edward M. Kennedy. Two days before he was to announce his withdrawal as a candidate for President in 1976, there was Kennedy walking meditatively on the island where his White House hopes foundered five years...
