Switch on Leon

Electromusical instrument Theremin Vox

It's the first instrument of this type

It's a singing vocal instrument

In it, the control of the melody is achieved

By influencing the electromagnetic field around the instrument

On the other side here is Robert Moog

Dr. Moog, his name is a household word now

Because of the synthesizer

And many other electronic devices

What do you find special about the Theremin?

It's very simple technically

I met Professor Theremin when he came to America

To demonstrate the instrument

At that time I was a very busy violinist

I was fascinated by the aesthetic appearance

Of the instrument

The visual beauty and the playing technique

If it's such a simple device

How is it that every time a tube goes out

There's a major crisis here?

Such a simple device

The idea of playing completely without touching anything
