"This composition was written by Olga Theremin, the granddaughter of the inventor of the musical instrument known as the "theremin". Olga wrote this originally as a song based on a poem by the 19th century Russian poet Athanasius Fet. For me, Olga's music had a wonderful romantic Russian feel to it so I decided to transcribe it (*with permission*) for the theremin. In this video you see only my pitch hand and the pitch antenna of the Moog Ethervox theremin.
Here is Olga's original version of the piece on which my arrangement is based. The child in the photo is Olga with her grandfather, Leon Theremin. I'd like to thank the Theremin family for their cooperation."
