Mists: Charles Ives for Jazz Orchestra is a jazz album produced by Planet Arts Recordings and released in August 2014.[1] The recording is centered on Charles Ives' art song arranged for 17 piece jazz orchestra by composer Jack Cooper; this is a Third stream approach to jazz made more widely know by earlier band leaders and composers such as Paul Whiteman, Gunther Schuller, George Russell and Don Sebesky. Noted Ives scholar Gayle Magee writes,"These recordings preserve the essence of (Ives) classics...while offering a fresh, modern reinterpretation for Ives fans and jazz enthusiasts alike."[2] The album was named as one of the Top 10 Jazz CDs for 2014 in the Chicago Tribune by music critic Howard Reich and also peaked at #8 in radio airplay in the Roots Music Report for top albums in Canada for October 26, 2014.[3]
Background
Hearing Ives for the first time
Jack Cooper grew up in a musical household in the greater Los Angeles area. His mother (Georgie Cooper) was a professional keyboardist, and numerous musicians visited their house to rehearse and give recitals; his Godfather (Robert Voris) was one of those.[4][5][6] Voris was one of the first vocal soloists (baritone) with the William Hall Master Chorale in the late 1950s and at one point recorded a LP of classical art song with his mother in October 1963, just 5 months after Cooper was born.[7] Many works were recorded for the LP to include Charles Ives songs. The Ives titles recorded on the master tapes were The Greatest Man, Serenity, Evening and Charlie Rutlege. This sound became normal for Cooper to hear at home. Cooper heard Ives' songs performed for about 10 years until both his mother and Voris were too busy to perform regular recitals together any longer.
Ives music played in school
During the 1980s Cooper heard and played a great deal of Charles Ives works in music school such as the Country Band March, The Unanswered Question, The Camp-Meeting, and his symphonies. He went onto work professionally as a full-time jazz musician for about 6 years and then entered the University of Texas at Austin to do a doctorate in music composition.[8] By that time he had a great deal of experience as a professional staff writer doing jazz orchestra works. Along with Ives, a great love of his is writing for large jazz groups such as what Fletcher Henderson, Ellington, Basie, Gil Evans, etc. had composed. At one point while living in New York he studied with the jazz composer Manny Albam; Albam was very encouraging later in the pursuit of the Ives jazz orchestra project.
Ives songs made into dissertation
Cooper first attended classes at the UT Austin in late 1995; one of those was with musicologist Elliott Antokoletz.[9] In Antokoletz' book Twentieth Century Music (Prentice Hall), Chapter 7 is devoted to music in the United States and specifically Charles Ives is analyzed for 10 pages.[10] Elliott Antokoletz uses Ives' The Cage as a key departure point. The Cage ended up becoming the first of the Ives works Cooper arranged for jazz orchestra; an experiment on how to use more disparate 'Americana' material to arrange and orchestrate rather than typical 'tin pan alley' songs. Cooper's arrangements preserve Ives' work while undergoing a transformation to a jazz aesthetic, "...(the) unexpected places we hear in jazz, and wanna' hear in jazz."[11]
In 1997 Cooper undertook a dissertation project to find music suitable for jazz orchestra that would push the boundaries of how to orchestrate in that idiom.[6][12] It was a new, Third Stream approach of melding a prominent American classical composer with the idiom of full 17 piece jazz orchestra. Charles Ives music was decided upon due to the composer's distinctly American style and approach to melodically and harmonically challenging material. The first three works used in that dissertation were The Cage, The Last Reader and Tom Sails Away; the work is listed as a noted text in both "Charles Ives: A Guide to Research" and "A Charles Ives omnibus".[12][13][14][15] Cooper's orchestrations of The Cage and Tom Sails Away were also recorded on CDs by university jazz ensembles. These would later become studio demo recordings for record labels.
Charles Ives big band recording
In 2000 the idea came about to do an entire CD of Charles Ives works for jazz orchestra to be completed with the Summit Jazz Orchestra in Munich, Germany.[16] Due to lack of funding the project fell through but the whole album of eight of Ives songs arranged for a jazz orchestra had been completed by Cooper. Although there were setbacks, a meeting with Bob Brookmeyer during this time was very encouraging with the lengdary composer giving his approval of Cooper's scores.[17] Executive producer Thomas Bellino with Planet Arts Recordings become very interested in the recording project and approached Cooper for the permission to produce the CD late in 2002. An initial grant from the Aaron Copland Fund For Recorded Music was obtained for $10,000 but numerous difficulties with copyrights and production costs had to be worked out which prolonged the recording timeline.[18] Finally in November 2013, Jack Cooper met with long time friend and musical collaborator Luis Bonilla and the project moved ahead with Bonilla as producer, contractor and musician. The CD was then recorded by a full jazz orchestra (live, no overdubs) on April 4, 2014 with extra recording of two solos by trumpeter Terell Stafford completed on April 6. The remainder of the funding needed ($18,750) was obtained through the crowd funding site Indiegogo during a highly successful campaign during 25 days in June 2014.[1][6][19][20] As part of that fundraising initiative a category of pledges was developed to lend an important educational aspect to production and support of the project. A donor gave $3000 (part of the Indiegogo) in order to have Cooper visit the University of Northern Iowa campus on April 8-10, 2015 and work with the jazz ensemble in the School of Music. Five of the Mists/Ives jazz orchestra works were performed as well as a new work that was commissioned from Cooper for the group.[21] The recording has gained notoriety among composers to include Scott Healy who has a three part series of extensive blog entries outlining the significance and provides analysis of the Ives adaptations.[22]
The Individual Works from MISTS
Mists
Of all eight Ives original songs, Mists is the shortest with The Cage a close second.[23] The implications are a great deal of material was developed based on only a very few melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic ideas. References can be heard to Dee Barton's writing he did for Stan Kenton and some of Thad Jones writing for his own jazz orchestra; a mix of the two.[24] A comparison can be made to Beethoven's Sinfonia Eroica being so complex but only using a simple Eb major triad; Mists consists of only two whole-tone scales, a small chord stream, and a simple major triad to end. The arrangement was developed from only little musical material.
The Last Reader
The Last Reader is a more tradition setting that was one of the less complicated Ives arrangements to complete.[25] It is set in three-quarter time. The arranger borrows Ives' idea of having two groups playing at once in harmonic and rhythmic conflict; this is on the front and back of the arrangement. The song itself is one of Ives' longer ones and is rich in harmonic material; Cooper's work is a huge exercise in new chord colors achieved for a large jazz ensemble using Ives' language.[26]
The Children's Hour
From the outset Cooper leaves The Children's Hour alone as much as possible.[27] It is a complete piece that Ives based on the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow poem; the harmonic and rhythmic language of Ives needed to be kept intact. Ives' original worked very well but is put to a Ahmad Jamal, Poinciana type of jazz feel. The Children's Hour was also inspired by the music of Manny Albam, whom Cooper had studied with in New York during the early 1990s.
Tom Sails Away
The longest and most complex of all Ives' works chosen for the recording was Tom Sails Away.[28] The harmonic and rhythmic ideas used are jazz and fusion but the formal layout is borrowed strictly from classical music, modified from the 14th century French Rondeau poetry form. It is transformed into a huge Rondo due to Ives' use of separate vignettes to tell the story contained within the entire song.
The Camp Meeting
The Camp-Meeting shows up in Ives' catalogue in several forms.[29][30] Regardless of which you are familiar with, the opening and closing of the work have a traditional American brass band sound. The middle of the arrangement is converted into a bossa nova and again was an exercise in new harmonic concepts taken from Ives' work.
Watchman
Ives had a love for American hymns and transforming them into his own work. Watchman! is originally a Christmas hymn written by Boston choirmaster Lowell Mason in 1830.[31][32] Undoubtedly this is a hymn Ives played as an organist in Danbury, Connecticut in the late 1800s; he made it his own. His mixing of tonalities is recognizable throughout the work; Cooper uses Ives' devices and makes this into a more uptempo jazz waltz.
At the River
Again Ives fondness for religious hymns shows up in (Shall We Gather) At the River.[33] It resonated for Cooper because of hearing his mother play this for church services on the organ (Cooper was her page turner many times as a child). Like Ives, Cooper wanted a feeling of familiarity and newness all at once --- having the hymn tune, though familiar, emerge as a new idea; more striking and 'swinging' rather than its original context.
The Cage
The Cage is the very first of the eight written; ironically, many consider this to be the Tour De Force of the recording.[34] This contains many influences to generate compositional ideas from such a small but important Ives work. All the way from Bob Brookmeyer to Arnold Schoenberg and all in between; many other composers can be traced in the arrangmement. The small piece morphs into a 24 measure minor blues and then moves away leaving the listener hanging much like the philosophical question asked in the original Ives tune...'is life anything like that?'

"Mists" not only does justice by Ives but emerges as one of the most beautiful large-ensemble jazz recordings of the year to date."
~Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune (syndicated)
Jack Cooper has taken eight of Ives' art songs, arranged and orchestrated the pieces for his 17-piece big band, and essentially reinvented the music. The result is a unique set of post-bop treatments of Charles Ives' music...
~Scott Yanow, LA Jazz Scene[64]
"Jack Cooper's band and project are outstanding. Charles Ives' early-20th-century art-songs have been transformed into a 21st-century big band format with excellent arrangements and exciting improvisations."
~Frank Tirro, author of Jazz: A History and Living With Jazz: An Appreciation[1]
"Jack Cooper is and incredible musician, composer, and arranger! When I got the call to record 'Mists: Charles Ives Music for Jazz Orchestra' CD, I knew this would be a challenging experience adapting Ives' music to Jazz. Jack's intricate arrangements incorporate his extensive studies of Ives' music along with his knowledge and history of Jazz."
~Vince Cherico, drummer/percussionist for the Grammy winning Arturo O'Farrill Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra[1][65]
"I always suspected that Charles Ives had the makings of a great jazz composer. Now Jack Cooper has shown just how jazzy Ives can get. This is a fun, exciting recording and one of the most creative big band projects of the year."
~Ted Gioia, author of The History of Jazz[1]
"In this CD Jack Cooper presents innovative, exciting arrangements of several of Ive's most popular songs for jazz orchestra. These recordings preserve the essence of classics like 'Mists,' 'The Cage,' and 'At the River' while offering a fresh, modern reinterpretation for Ives fans and jazz enthusiasts alike"
~Gayle Magee, President, Charles Ives Society, author of Charles Ives Reconsidered[1]
"Jack Coopers Charles Ives project is not only interesting but filled with great playing, great charts and great soloing. Check out this important work for large jazz ensemble!"
~Mark Taylor, Composer/Arranger, former staff arranger for the Stan Kenton Orchestra[1]
"Jazz arrangers have always searched for material with which to define their individual style and approach to writing for large ensembles. Jack Cooper has revisited one of America's iconic composers, Charles Ives, and crafted outstanding big band arrangements of Ives' music, performed with great elan by top New York jazz musicians."
-Dave Slonaker, Composer/Arranger, 2014 Grammy Nomination - Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album[1]
"...what a gorgeous CD! I love the charts and arrangements. I have always been drawn to Ives, since I was a teenager - now I think I know why. There are certain harmonic elements to Ives that lend themselves very naturally to jazz. Candidate for "record of the year" in my book!"
~Brad Stone, award winning jazz D.J. and programmer with KJSJ Jazz Radio, Producer/programmer/host, "The Creative Source"
"Jack Cooper's Mists gets my pick for big band album of the year. Adapting the work of Charles Ives to jazz orchestra, these songs are simply breathtaking."
