I wish more people knew how beautiful the Theremin can be. This is a lost instrument and it's great seeing it still being used in performances. Great job with such a valuable article, and you have yourself a smokin' day!

Thank you! It's almost a lost instrument but still shows up occasionally - for example in Natalie Holt's beautiul music for the Loki TV series. Meanwhile I'm doing my bit to keep it alive by playing old-time songs at local open mic nights...
