What an unusual yet delightful modern instrument! A good Japanese violinist got ill and couldn't carry on her instrument so she took up the theremin instead! It's used in film scores a lot.
Has anyone else played a theremin? If so - what did you think?
I've tried...and tried...and tried again, but absolutely cannot get used to the Theremin sound. It tends to grate on my ears and nerves. I was brought up on classical music - heading towards becoming a concert pianist at one point in my life, then switched to the vocal arts - including opera. To me, there's something unnatural about the sound it produces. Does anyone else feel that way? Or...am I t total outsider?!?!?!
