FIRST MAN Theremin Theme

- The theremin in this video, or rather the music it made, actually went to the moon with astronaut Neil Armstrong as part of the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Here is a quote from the final paragraphs of the book, MOONDUST: IN SEARCH OF THE MEN WHO FELL TO EARTH by Andrew Smith ( the full story of the Apollo 11 moon mission, published in 2006).
"Of more interest to me, though, was Neil Armstrong’s response to a supplementary question about 'the strange, electronic sounding music' that Collins [fellow astronaut Michael Collins] reported him taking to Luna. Armstrong told me that the electronic sound I referred to was the theremin music of Dr. Samuel Hoffman, specifically an album called MUSIC OUT OF THE MOON, which he [Neil Armstrong] had committed to tape from his own collection."
The theme played in this video was written by composer Justin Hurwitz for the 2018 film FIRST MAN. The movie is based on the book, FIRST MAN: THE LIFE OF NEIL A. ARMSTRONG, by James R. Hansen.
The theremin you see and hear in this video once belonged to Dr. Samuel Hoffman, and was used for the recording of the album MUSIC OUT OF THE MOON.

It's like every theremin is assigned a ghost that comes out and vocalizes
that’s actually how they’re made i work at the theremin factory putting ghosts in the boxes
The ghost in the machine
from the looks of it you need to jerk off the ghost so it sings ...
The timbre of the theremin is so human at times. Truly eerie.
Zac Redington Maybe because there's a human playing it? We will never know the true answer.
ArcticZombie Ouch

This man isn't playing with his hands, he's playing with his soul
Theremin was a favorite music instrument of Neil Armstrong. This is why it is so present in First Man soundtrack. So Justin Hurwitz mastered to play theremin for Neil.
Good for him but he's never gone to the Moon... lollll 😋
@@nocturnal7345 I didn't say other people didn't go there u dimwit, but A. n the rest r liars.
@@kamilarikut3638 I guess all that brainpower isn't being used properly. There is enough evidence, to be honest, and, if you think the records are fake (This includes actual recordings, videos, and pictures) I am certain that the primitive tribes are more intelligent than you are. Neil A. Armstrong is not a liar, it would be near impossible for him to fake it at this point, or at any point throughout history. There, have I convinced you enough before you come up with a more lesser intelligent response?
@@BasedAlaric Go watch Armstrong's press conference with the other two liars again. That's all I am going to tell you.
@@kamilarikut3638 I ready have. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Oh... you are using their expressions and speech to determine whether they are lying right? Sorry for using the assumption card here but that doesn't justify anything. The capsule, suit, stones/rocks, engine, a hundred voice recordings from CAPCOM and the capsule itself, video recordings, images from the moon and space, the computers, the engineers who had worked on all things on the saturn v. Plus, you can go talk to the guy who crafted the computers for the orientation of the rocket. Yet, here you are justifying that the three astronauts whom landed on the moon are liars because of a press conference. Things change dude, especially if they saw Earth from that distance. No doubt about it. I think there is enough evidence for them to land on the moon.
Proof that theremin isn't just joke instrument.
It never was...
Is it, because I'm laughing
When Peter plays with eyes closed, he's "in the note", in the zone.
Mark of a real musician.
I work at a movie theater and listened to the end credits song “Quarantine” and had to see the full film. It is one of my favorite ways the theremin has been used- in film, an emotional soundtrack.
Love that song! Beautiful soundtrack & film.
When Neil drops his daughter’s bracelet on the moon..it was heartbreaking. Theremin is so good there
I just discovered Theremin today and I've been binge watching Theremin videos especially here, it's just so beautiful..
The same for me :)
I can feel it in my heart as much as I can hear it in my ears
exactly !!!
Best use of a theremin ever.
I've been following Peter's performances for some time and if you're new to his videos I urge you to check them out. He plays many ancient instruments, very well, I should add, and in the manner of how they were plays hundreds, even thousands of years ago. He's brilliant and very entertaining to watch and listen to. Keep up the awesome work Pete.
He is surely an esoteric master. He seems to have grasped some ancient and musical wisdom lost to others. He is more than educated, as he has found a connection between ancient souls and many of our present day lives.
I just wished he uploaded more frequently
celestial chorus Just like Bjork.
Maybe he has been here many times before and came to help elevate the vibration of the planet.
I watched this before seeing the movie. I just finished the movie, and couldn't resist coming back here.
If only I could hit that like button again, now that this song means more to me and has more weight.
I just discovered this instrument last night and am looking up videos about it. It is incredible the music it makes. Haunting glorious heavenly and serene all at once. All you can do is close your eyes and soak it in.
Better than a human voice, because you can manipulate it to have that eerie and hauntingly beautiful sound!
Mr. Pringle you have to do a Q&A sometime or some sort of biographical video. Your musical ability with ancient instruments and the Theremin is really amazing, not to mention your voice! Great work
The perfect instrument to play this type of song... so beautiful, ethereal.... out of this world! Your songs truly take me elsewhere!!
I wasn't watching, just listening, and thought it was a woman's beautiful voice. Amazing!
This honest to goodness just shattered me to pieces. Justin Hurwitz's score for First Man is already deeply moving and profound but this rendition just elevated it to another level.
Oh wow! This came up without me having eyes on - I thought this was a real voice - that's bloody amazing!
En regardant le film j'ai cru que le thème était "chanté"......Et je découvre le Theremin...... Incroyable💕😍
Haunting and beautiful.
Such an appropriate sound for an 'alien world' so beautiful - so unique amost like a human voice....
RIP Neil Armstrong.
Beautiful, as always, Mr. Pringle!
Be still my heart! From the First Man's hometown, thank you. ❤️. You have a standing invitation.
Oh , and thank you for always telling your instrument's story. Always a pleasure, on top of your other worldly music. Just beautiful.
Wow... I never thought the theremin could be such an emotional instrument
There's nothing else like the sound of Dr. Samuel Hoffman's theremin. Beautifully played M. Pringle, as always.
The instrument was invented by a young Soviet physicist named Lev Sergeyevich Termen (known in the West as Léon Theremin) in October 1920 after the outbreak of the Russian Civil War.
He moved to the USA to patten it. Then about to years later NKVD agents kidnapped him and spirited him away to a forced Labour camp.
An evil stalinist... And we still believe that ukranians should spare some of them...
@@First-Last_name he prob went willingly and then lived without working, prob a pal of Stalin
Thank you sir, so much. This post is worth the wait. We hope you will post more as soon as you can.
Incredibly beautiful as usual ! the start sounds like a human voice !
Big respect, it's clear how much you love music and that is transmitted to your performances and your voice in the videos where you sing.
Such a beautiful performance. Thank you!
Thank you for this video, as well as all your others. Your channel transports me through time and I absolutely love that it's available to the world. Best wishes from New Mexico!

Dear Peter, it is very beautiful. Thank you very much.
This was an amazing movie -- filled with the thrill of conquest, humanity, bravery, humility, joy, and pain. The soundtrack was ingenious, and the theremin was a perfect pick for inclusion in the music.
Beautiful ... Simply beautiful
Beautiful cover, wonderful movie! I love this soundtrack and I love the sound of theremin! Well done!
One of the reasons why I love the movie is this serenely beautiful and unique soundtrack...
My favorite instrument the theremin which brings great swells of emotion within me. Thank you.

This is the most beautiful Theremin piece I have ever heard.
Nicely done. I've yet to see that movie. Thanks.

Great and emotionally!

Просто шедевр, если закрыть глаза, то можно увидеть как ты находишься в открытом космосе и от туда видно всю планету а солнце за миллионы километров слепит глаза будто ранний рассвет
It sounds like the static between radio channels
@@First-Last_name нет чувак, звучит как женский голос
I am baffled. thanks Mr. Pringle.
Can you upload vids more frequently? Theres not a lot of content on these things, your work is much appreciated and enjoyable. I would like to see more. Especially on ancient lyres from israel and the kithara and egyptian lyres. Those were great
Bless you Mr Pringle !!
Spectacular!
Awesome. Moving.
Beautiful
Wonderful.
Beautiful!!!!
This is beautiful

Any video with Peter Pringle is a masterpiece. Its neat to know electronic music has been around almost 100 years now!
this piece truly captures the essence of what it was meant to represent
Incredibly beautiful. Greetings from Russia
That's actually really beautiful

Best score of 2018
Heaven to my ears.
Goosbumps. The good kind.
This is amazing...watched First Man two times and just found out that the Theramin was used.
this video and comment section is just... fascinating.
this music makes all my nerves fire up in a positive manner !
Bellísimo!!
Peter this is beautiful! But can we please have more ancient songs ? Like Ancient Greek or Roman or even Egyptian again and more of you’re voice you have a wonderful voice !
Yeah loved the Sumerian one
Yeah same !
3:24 ... that note there? I felt that one
Wow!!! DIVINE!
Awesome music from awesome movie.
masterpiece
Suena bellísimo, saludos desde Patagonia Argentina.
This gave me chills
Pete please tell me you yet live, your content is genuine art.
Very lovely. I'm guessing this is Pringle on the harp and/or synth as well? Sweet piece of music, and what a cool thing to play it on the Hoffman theremin. Thank you.
Magnifique
me: someone's playing an air harp too?
me:
me: oh
So beatiful ;=;
Yes! was hoping you would do this. When can we get a theremin version of "Like a Stranger" ?
The last 15 min of the movie was very poetic and sad
I love this song
There were moments...😢
Try to hold ur tears after listening to this.
Truly music from the heavens.
What a stunning piece
