performance was as a member of Theremin's Carnegie Hall ensemble in 1930. By 1932, Lucie Rosen was performing frequently in New York as a soloist, but it wasn't until 1935 that she made her official New York debut with a recital at Town Hall. “Mrs. Rosen wove with eloquent hands the magical-seeing spell,” the New York World-Telegram wrote, “and the theremin responded to her summons with some of the most strictly musical sounds it has yet produced in our concert rooms.” The New York Times described how “the instrument got out of gear and its inventor, Leon Theremin, was called onto the stage to set it right ... Mrs. Rosen was in command of its resources all evening. She plays the theremin, not only with an awareness of its possibilities, but with a knowledge of music.” Reviews such as these were quite satisfying to Lucie, proving that the theremin was indeed a serious instrument and she was no dilettante.

Lucie also continued performing in the United States giving numerous concerts in New York City and throughout the Northeast, again to rave reviews. “Lucie Rosen is one of the most original women in New York’s social world,” The New York Evening Journal observed. “She has a very curly blond hair which fuzzes out into a wide halo around her delicate and ethereal face ... her robe de style evening gowns are said to be designed by Mr. Rosen.”(February 3, 1936) By late 1938 the Walter Rosen was reconsidering his support for Leon Theremin. The inventor had a significant amount of unpaid taxes, the FBI was monitoring him, and his personal life was in shambles. He was also seriously behind in his rent payments. Later that year Mr. Rosen, in his typically gentlemanly tone, wrote Theremin a letter demanding he vacate the brownstone.

After his release from the Soviet camps, Theremin briefly took a teaching position at a music conservatory, but was soon expelled by the authorities. He contacted Lucie several times before her death in 1968, wishing to visit with her once more and show her his newest inventions, but it was not meant to be. When her beloved Walter died in 1951, Lucie dedicated herself to establishing the Caramoor Music Festival, determined to see it grow and thrive. Caramoor remains a destination for theremin scholars, historians, and artists who find our archives of Lucie's correspondence and original scores to be a valuable and comprehensive resource for their research.
