My YouTube Maiden Voyage

[maggie~hamilton]

Well, for better worse, here's my first YouTube video.

This was shot in the evening, in my living room, with a single and unmoving digital video camera: It's your typical YouTube Amateur Hour fare, meant only for fun and not to be taken too seriously!

I played it on my Etherwave Pro theremin (left-handed). I have four other theremins, so if I don't get too many rotten tomatoes from this effort I'll do some more on my other instruments.

(btw, no I was not chewing gum at the beginning! That's a trick of the subdued lighting and the low video resolution. Sorry, but YouTube isn't High Definition - yet...!)

Anyway, bla bla bla, enough disclaimers - see link below

nervous groom on
Honeymoon Night, hahaha!)

Great job, Charles; For those of you in the AW.ORG family who aren't musicians, the Theremin is a very challenging instrument. It takes a lot of talent to play in tune, with so much finesse and control. (And now you know who left the first comment at YouTube, LOL)

Clara would be proud!

Been a theremin fan for more decades than I care to admit...you play beautifully, and with amazing control and skill!

Now, how about the Rachmaninoff "Vocalise"? Pretty please? ;-)
