THEREMIN: OMBRA DI NUBE
Published on Aug 14, 2014 Peter Pringle
"This short song, OMBRA DI NUBE, was written in 1935 by Italian composer and Roman Catholic priest, Licinio Refice. Since the composer died in 1954 during rehearsals for his opera CECILIA, based on the life of Saint Cecilia (the patron saint of music) I thought it might be appropriate to perform it in the Basilica of Saint Cecilia In Trastevere in Rome........this was done through the miracle of Green Screen.
The 1929 RCA theremin in the video, with its distinctive 'lightning bolt' art deco antennas, was once the property of inventor Leon Theremin's assistant and business partner, Julius Goldberg."
