Which means that anytime the man's work receives a stage, especially locally, it deserves attention. Despite being one of the modernist's less radical pieces, Ives' “Symphony No. 3 (The Camp Meeting)” remains a rarely performed composition. American hymn tunes and European classical traditions inform what is a pastoral, nostalgic and ruggedly American masterpiece – a stroke of genius that rightly earned a Pulitzer Prize for music in 1947. Two gifted soloists (violinist Chloe Trevor and 2014 Dallas International piano competition winner Kyle Orth) complete the Dallas Chamber Symphony program with Vaughan-Williams' “The Lark Ascending” and Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20 respectively.
