Duly Unit "CONTINUOUS EXCITEMENT HYPNOTIC r. N.r.Tmti BERNARD ROGERS to retire in June raiso University (Mus.Doc.) and Wayne State University (L.H.D.), and in 1947 became a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters. His manual, "The Art of Orchestration," published in 1951, has served as a basic reference for many a young composer. Commenting on the Rogers retirement, Walter Hendl, director of the Eastman School, said, "Bernard Rogers's extraordinary combination of creativity and spirit is one that is all too rare in any generation; we have had the exceptional good fortune to have had him with us for nearly two whole generations. He attempted to retire before, in 1964, but we persuaded him to stay on so that his skill, imagination, humor and humanity could be shared with another few classes of fortunate Eastman students.

He will probably make his retirement stick this time, but I'm sure he will never be very far from us, nor we from him." "BEST FOREIGN FILM" JL iinrfvr DLul SS SCREENPLAY!" 14QlAlTvt i21-2700. POSITIVELY York City Feb. 1893. Unlike so many musicians who studied law before turning to music, his first study was architecture. His early composition teachers were Hans van den Berg, Arthur Farwell and Ernest Bloch.

After the success of his symphonic elegy "To the Fallen," introduced by Josef Stransky and the New York Philharmonic in 1919, Rogers was awarded a Pulitzer Traveling Scholarship which enabled him to study in Europe. In 1927 he received a Guggenheim Fellowship and took further work with Nadia Boulanger in Paris and Frank Bridge in London. He was engaged to teach composition and orchestration at the Eastman School when he returned to this country in 1929, and he has been one of the most valued members of the School's faculty since then. x- ROGERS' OUTPUT AS A composer has favored large forms, and many of his works with the element of fantasy. His best known orchestral works include such titles as "Once Upon a Time," "Leaves from the Tales of Pinocchio," and "Three Japanese Dances" (all three of which, incidentally, were among the works recorded at the Eastman School under the direction of Howard Hanson and Frederick Fennell).

"His opera, "The Warrior," was produced by the Metropolitan Opera in 1947, and another, "The Veil," was premiered at Indiana University three years later. His oratorio, "The Passion," described in Baker's Dictionary as "his most significant work," was first given in Cincinnati in 1944 under the late Eugene Goossens. The Ford Foundation commissioned Rogers's "Variations on a Song of Mussorgsky" through the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra in 1959, and that orchestra subsequently recorded the works under Theodore Bloomfield's direction for CRI. The Rogers catalogue also includes four symphonies, several major orchestral and choral works, and a good deal of chamber music. Many of these compositions were commissioned by such organizations as the Koussevitzky Music Foundation, the Louisville Orchestra, the String Foundation of 1 veland, the Methodist Youth Conference, and Temple Emanu-El in New York (for its centenary).
