The Theremin is one of the world's most mysterious instruments - and notoriously difficult to play! I first encountered this instrument back in the 1990's, and encouraged by the late Bob Moog, we formed a musical collective -
The Radio Science Orchestra
and we've been promoting the Theremin ever since.
