Festival Concert: Ann Lavin and Guests “Jerry Rosen teaches there. You can do no better.” Jerry is a hero to many in the clarinet community for his contributions as both performer and composer. What I learned soon after coming to Program UC Davis was that Jerry Rosen is also a warm and supportive person. He not only attended my first noon concert performance Four Pieces for Clarinet and Piano, op. 5 Alban Berg but also came back stage to speak with me following the (1885–1935) performance. His involvement and commitment to UC Davis had Ann Lavin, clarinet a considerable impact on my musical education. It is wonderful John Cozza, piano to return to Davis teaching as a faculty member in Jerry’s department. While our department has grown a tremendous amount since my undergraduate days, Jerry’s example of warmth Gra for Solo Clarinet and support remains one of the foundations of our department.

To say that he was the beloved mentor and friend of Dedicated to Deborah Pittman those who followed is to understate the case. Rather it is that his approach to the profession became the very fabric of UC Davis Left to right: Jerome Rosen, University Librarian Richard Blanchard, Five Dance Preludes Witold Lutoslawski Music: the synthesis of music composition, performance, Chancellor Emil Mrak, and Herman Phaff study Darius Milhaud’s and scholarship; a collegiality to be nourished daily; an Allegro molto (1913–94) Twelfth Symphony score for the inauguration of Freeborn Hall, 1962. innate commitment to our students, public, and the people of Andantino California. Rosen and his clarinet—as though symbolic of his Allegro giocoso Music Department—were inseparable, and it seemed altogether Andante fitting to offer this first Clarinet Festival in his honor. Allegro molto For his 60th birthday, in 1981, the faculty published a booklet: Salve Hieronymous!: A Birthday Offering for Jerome Rosen. He retired as Ann Lavin, clarinet professor emeritus in 1988.

Kern Holoman

Petite Suite Rosen I went to the Crocker Art Museum specifically to hear Jerome Rosen give a recital on Sunday, 24 October 1954. He told me there was Prelude a music department in the making and encouraged me to come to Davis. I was among seventeen graduating Woodland High School Marche seniors headed for UC Berkeley. The meeting with Jerome Rosen was the tipping point, a turn of the corner that changed my life. Valse Finale I was on the verge of becoming a teenage clarinet virtuoso and Jerry saw that in me. Hence he offered me private clarinet lessons (at no cost) for two years while I continued in performance. A few years later I investigated playing clarinet in the San Francisco Symphony. The down sides were that the symphony worked only six months out of the year, there were only two clarinet Miniatures for Four Clarinets, for Ann Lavin Laurie San Martin positions, and scale was $116.00 per week. I was already making $70–80 per weekend with my own dance band including playing gut Fanfare for Jerry Rosen (b. 1968) bustin’ rock ’n roll on my raucous B tenor sax. It was then that “I sold my soul to Rock ’n Roll.” In the Orchard Theater Music I married my high school sweetheart in 2004 and moved back to Davis. In a Davis Enterprise interview about my handling celebrity artists as a profession, I mentioned Jerome Rosen as a mentor. Jerry called the next day. I joined the Woodland Community Band and Ann Lavin, Diane Maltester, Marilyn Martella, and Leslie Tagorda, clarinet invited him to the concert. He said, “It looks as if you were actually playing, so you should contact Pete Nowlen, tell him I sent you, let you in the band and put you in the back row and regain the muscle memory in your fingers.” I am now celebrating my fifth year in the UC Davis Concert Band and am president of the Woodland Community Band. I have completed the circle. Professor Jerome Rosen was New York Counterpoint Steve Reich my inspiring mentor, teacher, and now a dear friend. —Bill Hollingshead (b. 1936)
