There are lots of people playing theremins these days, some of them quite well. I own one myself and hack away at it with mixed results. Will someone explain to me why no one even approaches the combination of precision and passion of Ms. Rockmore? Not to take anything from the fine players we have, from Dr. Hoffman to Lydia Kavina. But Rockmore remains the celestial standard. Why?

Japanese TV program "IKARI SINTOU" uses this song.

People tell me how electronic music is soulless, how it is void of any real emotion.
To these people, let me warn you now. I do not hide my contempt for ignorance nearly as well as I used to. Its an ability that's drifting with age.

She left me speechless.
Woah, a theremin sounds like a cross between a ghost woman humming to herself, and a violin made out of jelly...
