    Theremin also made some very ingenious devices, like one given as a gift from a soviet school to the embassy of USA disguised as an art piece. The device worked like a wireless transmitter but with no need for batteries. The energy needed for the radio to operate came from an external source that could be switched on and off by KGB agents. It was later discovered by a janitor who noticed a couple of small holes where the microphone was installed.
    EDIT: the signal was first detected accidentally by a British radio operator.

    Had a chance to try playing one at the Moog museum recently. I’m amazed anyone can play it, it’s super difficult.

      Yes, playing it definitely looks easier than it really is 😃! Did you try to play something specific?

      I played ins in 2020 in a museum in Bern, Switzerland. Very hard indeed. I’ll learn on a Theremini first ;-)

    Very cool, awesome to see how she's developed her own technique

      Definitely, and she was only 16 when she developed a new technique for playing the theremin!

    What is the concerto she is playing at 0:33 and then again at the end? I love the sound, hoping to find the full recording somewhere!

      @Christian Rosenhagen Please, no lukewarm jokes at the expense of our protagonists. She is a recognized musician and this gesture certainly has nothing to do with what you imagine it to be. Let's be fair.

      Seriously? 🙄 there is so much genuine neo-nazi stuff going on on social media. Why don't you look for that and spend your time confronting those guys? Hm? But I guess it's easier to comment on youtube when a musician raises her hand awkwardly during a performance...

      @@dweuromaxx Natürlich würde ich nicht annehmen, daß dies eine politische Geste ist. Ist halt aber doch ein wenig unglücklich für eine Veröffentlichung einer Institution, die Deutschland im Ausland präsentieren soll.
