Composer

Charles Ives

Ran a successful insurance business and wrote radically experimental music in the evenings, decades ahead of Europe, mostly unperformed until he was old.

Charles Edward Ives was an American modernist composer, actuary and businessman. Ives was among the earliest renowned American composers to achieve recognition on a global scale. His music was largely ignored during his early career, and many of his works went unperformed for many years. Later in life, the quality of his music was publicly recognized through the efforts of contemporaries like Henry Cowell and Lou Harrison, and he came to be regarded as an "American original".
