Like Sting, tubist JAY ROZEN was born in the 50's. He studied at Ithaca College, Yale University and the University of North Texas. He has played his tuba all over the world; in Israel, Russia, Germany, Austria, Holland, Switzerland, Canada and elsewhere, and in such diverse venues as the Bang-On-A-Can Marathon in New York to the Zappanalle Festival in Germany. He has played in the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, the European Tuba Quartet, the Creative Opportunity Orchestra (jazz ensemble).
A long-time champion of new music, Rozen has had pieces written for him by many composers, including Virgil Thomson (JAY ROZEN: PORTRAIT AND FUGUE) and David Lang (ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? for electric-tuba, narrator and chamber ensemble - CRI Recorde #625). Since moving to New York in 1999, Rozen has played with the American Symphony Orchestra and the SEM Ensemble. He has also performed with such jazz luminaries as Ray Anderson, Charli Persip, and Perry Robinson. Track List: 1. John White-Duo the First 2. John White-Duo the Second 3. John White-Duo the Third 4.
