  • This was pretty cool. People on here are way too critical.

    Don't listen to them.

  • that was kinda hard to listen to, the theremin player should work on his ear

  • i think you mean Clara Rockmore...

  • One hand controls the volume and the other the pitch (I don't remember which is which). You need a good ear to play this instrument, and even then I imagine it's incredibly difficult.

  • Play that at home

  • Where's Sarah Rockmore when you need her?

  • The theremin is off key? Boy, that's a new one!

    And what controls the theremin?

  • Painful. Sorry dude

  • Yeah, the theremin was off-key quite a bit. But still, good video. :D

  • that theremin is a little off key. I know its hard to play that instrument, but still...

    Despite that, I thought this was a nice video.
