A short introductory theremin lesson to playing notes, executing dynamic vibratto, and dynamic volume with the theremin. Playing errors included to demonstrate how difficult it is to play the theremin well.
To get a closer look at the aereal finger technique, right click on the video, select "zoom in" set to desired zoom, and drag the image to where you can see the hand.
Instructed by Thomas Grillo on Moog Etherwave Pro theremin.
This is not a substitute for professional how to play videos, books, or in-person instruction with a professional instructor.
This video would not have been possible without the invaluable professional training videos, books, and workshops produced by Peter Pringle, Carolina Eyck, Pamelia Kurstin, and Lydia Kavina. All of their methods have been, and are still being studied by me.

I know, confusing. I only learned long after producing this video that the plural term "antennae" is actually not correct when talking about devices with more than one antenna. Turns out it's only accurate when talking about insects. Who knew?

The theremin is the most difficult instrument in the world to play "well". It took me about a year, and a half, and 8 to 10 hours every day to reach my current playing skill level.
But, it's a very rewarding instrument, once it's mastered.

You're not alone. ... ( 3 dias por ThomasGrillo)

You're not alone. The theremin is still unheard of for many people, even today, after nearly 90 years since it was first invented by Leon Theremin, back in 1919.
It nearly went into oblivion back in the 60, and 70s, but it's enjoying a comeback in many genres of music, and many forms of entertainment.

The one seen here is the etherwave pro, and it's been discontinued unfortunately. It cost about 1400 at moogmusic.
Etherwave Standards are $400 from moogmusic.
B3s cost between $152 and $350 depending on model.
Wavefront theremins cost between 800, and 1800 dollars depending on model.

Out of production theremins like the Moog Ethervox which was built in the mid to late 90s fetches at least 8 or 9 grand. Only 50 were made.
A discontinued walnut finnished Etherwave Pro went for about 7 grand. Only 80 of these were made, over 1200 black backed Pros were made.
RCA theremins fetch well over 10 grand. Only 500 were made, and less than a third still work.
This is mainly due to how rare they are, and the condition they're in.
