I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to Ives, but I would say I'm a fan of his.... What I have always found interesting about him, though, is that he was experimenting with atonality around the same time Schoenberg was... and he had never even heard of Schoenberg.

Anyways... I've always been a fan of the Ives Plays Ives compilation that features recordings of him playing and improvising on the piano. Even his orchestral works are fantastic, such as his fourth symphony

Charles Ives was a maverick. Classical music needs more of them. It's also a refreshing change of pace to hear the work of a composer who lived into the 20th century and isn't an old guy from Europe who died over 200 years ago.
