"Louange à l'Immortalité de Jésus" [Praise to the Immortality of Jesus], the conclusion of Olivier Messiaen's 1941 *Quatuor pour la fin du temps* [Quartet for the End of Time]. Performed by Brian Robison, theremin, and Greg Vitercik, piano, at Middlebury College, 22 April 2008.
It was long overdue that someone did this piece on Theremin. Unfortunately the Thereminst is pretty much out of tune right from the start and pitchy throughout.
Understand that this is not the fault of the instrument but of the player! Don´t let it bring you down - do continue watching videos with Theremin. There are better players which are less ambitious with results more pleasing.
Great composition in any case. Best regards from Berlin
