Eyck & Tarnow - "10,000 Bells" / Improvisations for Theremin & Piano

via Moog Music

"German-born musician/composer Carolina Eyck is one of the world's foremost theremin virtuosi. She literally wrote the book on playing the instrument. For her American recording debut, Improvisations for Theremin and Piano, Carolina and her collaborators at Butterscotch Records conceived a project that would capture the musical intuition between Eyck and pianist Christopher Tarnow in a wholly improvisational, candid and unedited recording.

Today, Moog Music is proud to premiere the first video from Improvisations, 10,000 Bells, which showcases a moment or pure creation from Carolina Eyck's Moog Etherwave Pro and Christopher Tarnow's piano"

The theremin is one of the most fascinating musical instruments of our times. It was invented in 1919 by the Russian Lew Sergejewitsch Termen (later known as Leon Theremin), a trained physicist and ambitious cello player. For many inventors, Lew Termen's creation was a starting point for experiments with the unlimited possibilities of electronic sound generation. His theremin, also known in popular language as the etherwave violin, nevertheless represents even today something unique among musical instruments: it is played without touching it. Electric fields radiated by the instrument are influenced through movements of both arms and hands. In this way, the pitch and volume of the instrument can be controlled. Through every gesture, through the smallest movements of the body, the musician has the possibility of creating melodies and of shaping music in the air with his or her hands. The young Leon Theremin himself was able to enchant a large concert-going audience both in Europe and the USA with these magical sounds. But despite such enthusiasm, the number of theremin virtuosi has always remained small. This is not least because of the fact that the instrument demands of the performer an extraordinarily sensitive control of the body.

Hands Off 2007

"Some news from the UK... A group of UK thereminists have organised a weekend-long theremin get-together for the end of July just outside London, and have now made tickets available.

Cost is £150 for the whole event, which includes meals and 3 nights' accommodation.

So far we have got the great Lydia Kavina booked to do a masterclass, as well as Jon Bernhardt (of The Lothars - who has a nice 'Video Killed The Radio Star' on Youtube), Barbara Bucholz and Carolina Eyck appearing in concert. There will be demonstrations by commercial theremin makers, workshops and individual tuition available. All in all a must for anyone serious about the theremin - beginners and experienced players alike.

And just to sweeten the pot - anyone booking before June (with a 50% deposit) will be entered into a prize draw for a Prosonus Firepod!
