Visitors can learn about Lucie and Walter Rosen and the history of Caramoor in the Rosen House.
Lucie was responsible for promoting the instrument, advising Professor Theremin to improve its design, and commissioning works from the current composers of the era. And if you always wanted to try to play a theremin yourself, a modern version will be on hand to test your skill. (It’s not easy!) And to help visitors navigate the House, we’ve added more descriptive and directional signage. Tours will be largely self-paced, but we will still have our amazing docents available for in-depth questions about the Rosens, their House, and their collection. Lucie Rosen’s 1938 September Theremin and speaker The Rosen House is open for tours Friday – Sunday, 11–3pm. For the summer of 2021, advance reservations are required. Please call our box office or reserve on our website. Caramoor
Following the custom of the great European homes that welcomed the public inside, the Rosens were pleased when people asked to see their house and collection, and we are grateful to be able to continue on the tradition. / 19
