Rachmaninoff Vocalise Theremin

Amazing skill for 10 days!!! :-)

And the piece of work you chose to play is difficult too!

10 days into playing? That has to be a record. Very good.

I get a huge kick out of watching people play this (instrument?) Does it sound flat or is it just me? It looks as difficult as playing a violin, which sounds just as bad until you get the hang of it which I guess some people never do! I'd rather listen to Hauptwerk but thanks for the cute break.

Thanks! The Theremin is notoroiusly difficult to play, and aside from the human voice, is the only instrument which provides such direct control of pitch/volume and as such is capable of the most human expression. It does have a steep learning curve (like violin) but check out some of the experts - search for Clara Rockmore, Lydia Kavina and Randy George (ooo6) on here.

Jerry's on YouTube! This is much improved from the ScreechFest that was you and me playing the Swan a couple of weeks ago! Strong Work!

I agree. This is not an easy work to perform. Well done. Keep at it.

[jerrymartin79]

Thanks for the encouragement. I'm having a lot of fun!

Well done. It looks like you've made excellent progress in a short time.
